Quite possibly as Jesus was a Jewish man in Nazareth. Some people believe that a vow may have been taken in the time between Jesus leaving for the desert and beginning his mission.
Another answer:
Jesus was not a Nazarite. Being from Nazareth makes him a Nazarene. Taking a Nazarite vow makes one a true Nazarite. And it is not possible for Jesus to have been a Nazarite, due to the fact that he did not abstain from drinking fruit of the vine or wine, which he would have to do in order to take a Nazarite vow would be not to put a razor to his head or touch wine or grapes. and The Bible says he is a winebibber in Mat 11:19 & Luk 7:34 .
The best wine in those days was a pure grape juice which was unfermented, or contained no alcohol.
Another answer
I believe that Jesus adhered to the Nazarite vows. The Bible never mentions Him cutting His hair and His beard was pulled out during His indescribable crucifixion.
During the Jewish wedding, He turned water into wine (pure Grape Juice-without fermentation). The vow states that the Nazarite should abstain from strong drink (wine containing alcohol). See Elizabeth, John the Baptist's mother who was cautioned by an angel, as was Samsom's mother told to abstain from certain dietary no-no's namely strong fermented grape juice and unclean meats.
Jesus would not have had any personal liabilities associated with His earthly ministry such as an occasion for someone to get drunk at a wedding and then commit sin (i.e. a man getting drunk and beating his wife). This kind of behavior has often accompanied drinking wine containing alcohol. Therefore, we can be assured the Jesus never ever consumed any alcohol.

∙ 10y agoIt is not written, that I am aware of, that King Solomon (David's son) took the vow of a Nazarite. I would say he did not as he would have broken that vow by his construction of other temples to the gods of his wives (1000 in all). Solomon when asked by the Lord God of Israel, indicated that he was but a child and needed wisdom to guide so great a people as the house of Israel. The Lord God was pleased with his request and provided Solomon with wisdom as well as the things Solomon did not ask for. You will find the account written in 1st Kings chapter 3. However there is no mention there of Solomon swearing the vow of the Nazarite.
Additionally, Solomon consumed wine and meat quite often, which would have also violated the requirements to be a Nazarite. It was Samson who was the famous Nazarite in the Old Testament.

∙ 10y agoNo, the only people that we know of in the Bible who became Nazarites were Samson (Judg 13:4-5), Samuel (1 Sam 1:11), John the Baptist (Luke 1:15) and possibly Saint Paul (Acts 18:18).
