Yes, but these bacteria are not in all soils.

Antrax can be found in some soils. Many pathogenic bacteria can be in untreated sewage or septic effluent, which might be spread on soils. However, these intestinal bacteria usually don't live very long in soils. They are built to live and compete inside a living body, and are no match for native soil bacteria.
