They are mot used in modern flat screen LCD or LED TVs, but in the old cathode ray tubes the magnets (electromagnets) were near the rear of the tube and caused the electron beam to sweep up and down and from side to side (electron beams are bent by a magnetic field).

Do the magnets in a television make the picture?

No. Or rather, it's a lot more complicated than that. Magnets are important in a cathode ray tube style television, but they don't "make the picture". The picture shows up as a result of an electron beam hitting the phosphor-covered inside of the tube. The magnets are used to steer the electron beam. In an LCD or LED type television, there are no magnets and an entirely different process is used.
