    no. An oxymoron is where two contradictory terms are combined.

    If a lion was widely known for it's dishonesty then you may get away with it. I don't think it is though.

    An "honest liar" would be one.

    Describing someone as "outrageously plain" is another.

    A "foolish genius"

    "Extremely mediocre"

    Could go on a bit here.
