Historically, no. Macbeth was succeeded by his stepson Lulach, who only reigned a short time. Shakespeare cut Lulach out as an unnecessary character (although we do hear that Lady Macbeth has "given suck" which must refer to him.) and had Malcolm succeed Macbeth. Historically inaccurate but dramatically more satisfying.
