When that bacteria evelves into a different kind of life, that will be evolution. This is an example of adaptation.

It is still a bacyeria, not a multi-cell animal.

That would be a redefinition of the term evolution.

Evolution is change in the gene pool of a population over time. Under that definition, which is still the one used in the world of biology, this is evolution.
