No. The Pulitzer Prizes were first awarded in 1917 for American (US) work published in the preceding year (1916). Leo Tolstoy was Russian, lived outside the United States, and died in 1910, so he wouldn't have been eligible to participate.

Did Leo tolstoy's book War and Peace win an award?
I thought for sure he won the Pulitzer Prize for Literature. One fascinating aspect of the Nobel Prize for Literature has to do with the people who didn't win it. Leo Tolstoy never did. He was considered for the initial prize in 1901, but the judges determined that for his anarchism and his eccentric religious views, he should be passed over. Tolstoy was again nominated in 1902, but was again rejected. Tolstoy said that he didn't mind "because it saved me from the painful necessity of dealing in some way with money--generally regarded as very necessary and useful, but which I regard as the source of every kind of evil."
