No, he's not. He's the F'ing owner, no one can fire him.
There is an argument to be made for a coach or a GM to not be seen as being subject to the will of the fans, or they'll be seen as weak, unable to be their own man, etc. More likely to be fired, less likely to find another job.
An owner doesn't have to care about what anyone else thinks. If he believes Pioli should be fired, he should fire him. The media then criticizes him for bending to the fickle whim of the fans? Screw the media, the owner doesn't have to worry much about his reputation.
