You mean in a phrase like this?
He's always been late for everything, including his own wedding.
No. In this and similar constructions, you would put one before it. You would never put one after.
The only time you would have one after it is if it were followed by a phrase that requires commas around it, like this:
Remember to bring everything we need for the barbecue, including, of course, the meat.
Here the phrase "of course" requires the commas. It just happens to follow "including," but "including" is not the reason for the comma.
