Yes, from 1855, when it obtained responsible government (following Nova Scotia, 1848; the Province of Canada, 1849; Prince Edward Island, 1851; New Brunswick, 1854) and gave it up in 1934. In 1949 it voted for confederation with Canada and became the province of Newfoundland (changed to Newfoundland and Labrador in 2001).

Will Newfoundland ever disappear in the ocean because of a tsunami?

No because Newfoundland is not hot enough for any tropical storm, including tsunamis. Newfoundland is in Canada. And Canada is a non tropical country because it is in the northern hemisphere . So it is extremely rare and very unlikely that Canada will ever have a tropical storm like hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, and tsunamis. And no tsunami will be ever big enough to sink the whole island of Newfoundland.
