Monks were always members of families - they had mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers. In that sense they had families, but in general terms they did not have any contact with these relatives after becoming monks.
If you mean "Did they have wives and children?" the answer is definitely no, since monks were never permitted to have relationships with women or to get married.
