Yes and no, it's a fine line, and it can depend on the use and intent.
True, if it is constantly used as a replacement for a name then it functions as a nickname and would be capitalized. However, if it is an occasional/infrequent use then it is not. Overall the Chicago Manual of Style is very much in favor of never capitalizing it and being consistent in how it is used...
