No. While there may have been al-Qaeda cells in Iraq, as there were in a number of countries (including Western countries), they were not common, plentiful, or sanctioned by the government prior to the US invasion.

How long has there been violence between Iraq and al-Qaeda?

The question as posed is awkward. There is no violence between Iraq and al-Qaeda, rather there is violence perpetrated by al-Qaeda in Iraq and countered by the Iraqi Army, the Peshmerga, other militias, and, formerly, the US-led coalition. Al-Qaeda violence started when al-Qaeda members poured into Iraq midway through 2003. It has not ceased.
