No, the Nazi's were not a left-leaning party. They were a hodge-podge of ideologies, but it was mainly modeled off of Italian Fascism; the "socialist" in "National Socialist" was more to the point of a communal need to create a strong nation, to work together for the greater good. The Nazi's always were anti-Communists, anti-Liberal, and eventually even disagreed with Italian Fascism.

Being "anti-communist" does not necessarily mean one cannot be a leftist, however. Communism is an extreme and largely a failure as well.
