I don't reckon he said it in so many words, but I believe that is what he stood up for, yes. If you're looking for a quote, here's one that sounds very similar to your question. It's by Atticus himself:

"But there is one way in this country in which all men are equal-there is one human institution that makes a pauper the equal of a Rockefeller, the stupid man the equal of an Einstein, and the ignorant man the equal of any college president. That institution, gentleman, is a court."

Atticus points out that the case comes down to the word of a black man against the word of the white people, and that the Ewells' case depends upon the jury's assumption that "all black men lie." Uncharacteristically, Atticus loosens his tie and removes his jacket, which Scout and Jem are astounded to see, because he never walks about so casually. In his final remarks, Atticus speaks directly to the jury, earnestly reminding them that there are honest and dishonest black people just as there are honest and dishonest white people. He tells the jury that in a court of law, "all men are created equal." A court is, however, no better than the members of its jury, and he urges the jury to do their duty. he hopes the jury will see reason without prejudice.

Atticus Finch does not say this exact phrase in "To Kill a Mockingbird." The line “All men are created equal” comes from the United States Declaration of Independence.
