No, when the Earth first formed it was molten, it had to cool before liquid water could collect in its surface. There is also a thought that Earth's water may not have formed form the initial materials making up the Earth but been delivered to the Earth by comet or asteroids impacting the Earth later.

How does a flood get to earth?

The amount of water on Earth is finite - most of it is held in the oceans. For a flood to occur, it has to rain; for it to rain, the water in the oceans has to evaporate to form clouds. Floods can occur in limited regions when the rainfall is much greater than normal, but the water soon runs off, back into the ocean. Of course, it would not be possible for a flood to cover the entire earth, both because there is not enough water and because the floodwaters would run back into the oceans so quickly.
