Not on an iMac. It is just a plain slot that you push the CD into. And I have no idea how to force a stuck CD out if the computer does not eject it on command. Anyone know how to do that?
Maybe some of these will work....
Force Ejecting a Disk - Mac
In the event that a disk has become stuck in your Apple computer, there are several steps you can take to try to force it to eject.
Restart your computer, hold down the mouse button. If you have a 2-button mouse, hold down the left click.
If your computer has an eject key on the keyboard, restart the computer again, this time holding the eject key.
Open a Terminal window and type in drutil tray eject.

The feel first, insert second does not work, the slots feel exactly the same. Look first is the key, in which case they should have put it on the front. I noticed on the new IMac, the slot is in the back, which is not a good place. I have a USB card reader if I ever get a new IMac.
Better yet, buy a real computer from ASUS, HP, etc.; one with a real operating system.

I did the same thing and used a homemade L-shaped hook made of paper to remove it. Quick, simple and didn't harm anything as far as I can tell
