Simply, yes.
Earth was too hot in its distant past to have liquid water. Once Earth began cooling after the creation of the Moon, all the gaseous water (which largely came from icy planetoids and meteors hitting the Earth) could finally condense. This condensed liquid became rain.
I don't recall exactly how long the ocean-filling rain lasted, but it was something like thousands of years or more.
