Yes.
The Yayoi (the modern Japanese) came from China during the Yayoi period. They maybe a mix of both Koreans and Chinese, although archaeologists have found skulls similar to the Yayoi in Jiangsu, China indicating the Yayoi (Modern Japanese) originated from China.
Also, coincidentally, there is a Chinese legend that tells of Xu Fu that brought with him 1,000 boys and girls from China to Japan in search of the elixir of life for the emperor of China. The legend concludes that Xu Fu and the boys and girls he brought with him settled in Japan and he became Japan's first emperor.
The Ainu, on the other hand, were the first Japanese, but they didn't come from China. They were also Caucasian but with no European ancestry. They may have come from Russia or they were natively Japanese as they did say "they were in Japan for hundreds of years before the children of the sun (Yayoi) came".
