Best Answer

Shakespeare was not very famous while he was alive, so the most probably answer is no.

His fame came after his death, and the publishing of his folios. During his life, he was noted as being a good playwright, but not of any world renown.

No, he didn't want to be famous. He wanted to be rich and to have a higher social status, but he would not have been able to comprehend how famous he has become. His contemporary, Ben Jonson, was really interested in becoming famous, as can be seen from his many acts of self-promotion. Shakespeare was hardly interested at all in becoming known as an author.
