In general, no, but there are some situations in which using a comma after "but" is correct.

Here is an example: I was going to say no, but, because you have presented such a persuasive argument, I have decided to allow it. An example of a more typical sentence using "but", where there is a comma before but not after "but", is the first sentence in this answer.
