No, in the United States banking system, when a bank loan is repaid, the money supply goes down by the amount of the principal that was paid off. When banks lend out money, that money is created out of thin air by a accounting journal entry, and the money supply goes up by the amount of the loan. When the loan gets paid off, that money disappears back into thin air and the money supply goes back down.
