No, because the Mississippi River formed the western boundary of the U.S and the Florida and the Gulf Coast were still Spanish territory at the time.

Did the united state include territory on the Gulf of Mexico in1783 explain?
Upon its actual independence in 1783, no, the US did not include any land that touched the Gulf of Mexico. This is because Florida (which extended the Florida panhandle westward) was under Spanish control and the Louisiana territory was under French control. In 1783, the US stretched from the Great Lakes and Louisiana to the Atlantic coast to Spanish Florida. However, this quickly changed as the US bought Louisiana from France in 1803. Spain was ultimately threatened by the US into giving up Florida, as war was placed on the table (although neither country wanted to actually go to war), but the US paid millions to Spanish for Florida.
