Sort of. Planetary scientist theorize that when the sun was coalescing (forming), a lot of gas and dust were left over and began orbiting the new star. This is referred to as an accretion disk. This belt of particles over time began to collect in clumps, and as these clumps grew, the developed their own gravity wells, in turn sucking in more and more matter. Some formed planets, some formed other bodies that often crashed into the newly forming planets and added to their mass.
