Yes. The U.S. Air Force conducted several nuclear weapon tests in space back in the late 1950s and early '60s. There were some spectacular "atomic fireworks" visible from Honolulu.

There have been none in the last 45 years or so, since the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty banned nuclear weapons tests except in sealed underground bunkers.
