Yes, In most cases all somatic cells are diploid but in some organisms it is not the case, Gametophytes of plants are always haploid. Bacteria are also haploid. In angiosperms, the endosperm; which is considered somatic; is a tissue consisting triploid cell. Some time its chromosome number varies from 2n to 15n.

In some conifers , like Sequoia sempervirens, chromosome number is 6n (Hexaploids).

So, even in somatic cells, there is a large variety in chromosome number.
