Yes he did, but they are usually referred to as "Sinfonia" in Bach's time and were not on such as a grand scale as later works. During the Baroque Era, the "Symphony" was in its developmental stages and the form was later perfected by Haydn and Mozart.
Well, yes... and no.
The symphony, in the form you know (as Haydn, Beethoven or Brahms wrote them), was a new musical form created in the second half of 18th century, which comprised three or four movements or pieces, the first of them usually being a development of a theme in the so-called "sonata shape". It was developed by Haydn, the Mannheim school composers, the sons of Bach and others, and in this way, belongs mostly to the "classical" period, and was never cultivated by the "old", baroque, J. S. Bach.
But the origins of it can be traced to a rather older form, a kind of instrumental or orchestral prelude to operas, oratorios, cantatas and other works, in one or more movements, that were at the beginning or somewhere in the middle of such works as a kind of overture.
Bach made a number of these, as most other baroque composers did. Later, these primitive baroque "symphonies" began to be popular on their own, and were published as independent works, detached from the operas and so.
The classical composers took the genre and developed it into the big orchestral works we know.
So, well, J.S. Bach composed works that were called "symphonies", but were not the kind of symphonies that Beethoven or Tchaikovski did.
