Sort of.
Wheaton College (Mass.): Since 1834.
Wheaton College (IL): Since 1860.
Longer, yes, but not that much longer.

Actually the first institution to call itself "Wheaton College" is the one in Illinois (founded in 1860 by Jonathan Blanchard). In 1837, there was a Wheaton Seminary for women founded in Norton, MA, which changed its name to "Wheaton College" in 1897.
