Unlikely: Allergic reactions that are severe can result in the loss of consciousness with the body going limp. The symptom you describe is more consistent with a seizure disorder and a medical evaluation with your pcp is suggested.

Need more info: My initial thoughts are to ask for more information. It would be very helpful to know more about your daughter's medical history and a more detailed description of the episode to evaluate this with better precision.
