Not really. The Christmas tree has been part of the Christian holiday for centuries. Long before the rise of secularism. It may not have started as a Christian tradition, but you can't deny that it's prominance around the world is mainly due to the spread of Christianity.
One thing is for sure, it was not started by secular societies. It was Pagan, and then Christian.
