Depends greatly on which game you are referring to but generally the answer is no. Most likely your entire month's worth of gaming could equal watching one decently long video on youtube.

If you are using FireFox, you can right click on the page (somewhere on the background, not the game itself) and click "View Page Info". On the page that pops up, you will see how many KiloBytes (KB) the page took to load. The game probably does send and receive some data while your playing it and that won't show up in that number but should give you a good idea.

By the way, you're probably billed in GigaBytes (GB), that's one million KB so you can see that it isn't that much.
