No. Put $k=R/m$. Then $k$ is of finite projective dimension if and only if $R$ is regular. This is the famous theorem of Auslander-Buchsbaum, Serre (see for instance Bruns-Herzog Cohen-Macaulay rings theorem 2.2.7 for a proof). So the residual field of a non-regular CM ring will give a counter-example. |
