Best Answer

No- it began life as a TV series, and a film 'Dr.Who and The Daleks was made in 1965 starring Peter Cushing as The Doctor and also starring Roy Castle.

Dr.Who annuals, as well as annual devoted specially to The Daleks, appeared at around the same time, but the first Dr.Who novels didn't appear until the 1970s.
