I guess it depends on definition of the word "temperature".

I was referring to the classical definition

In classical thermodynamics and kinetic theory, temperature reflects the average kinetic energy of the particles in a system, providing a quantitative measure of how energy is distributed among microscopic degrees of freedom.
