Yes, and it was even considered as the site for the permanent capital.

However, under the Residence Act of 1790, a new location was created out of land from Maryland and Virginia, which became the District of Columbia, now Washington, DC.

Congress, under the Articles of Confederation, met in Annapolis from November 26, 1783 to June 3, 1784, making it the de facto national capital.
