Nope.

In addition to being semantically wrong (a line does not normally constitute
a paragraph), this causes more than desired, such as vertical spacing in
graphic rendering.

It still isn't a paragraph. Using <div> would be more appropriate. Moreover,
it's somewhat more logical and potentially more useful (especially in
styling) to wrap each line inside a <div> rather than use command-like
markup like <br>. That is,
<div>first line: there are some messages</div>
<div>second line: another line</div>
