Absolutely false — Jesus did not found the church on the apostles, he founded his church on his own death and resurrection: this is exactly why Jesus said to Peter get behind me Satan!
when Peter objected to his death. Note, as well that Jesus claimed personal responsibility for both his death and resurrection: The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life--only to take it up again. No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father.
(John 10:17-18)

Eph 2:19-22 AV: "Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints,
and of the household of God;
And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself
being the chief corner stone;
In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:
In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit."
