No; while Shakespeare wrote many of his plays in the form of blank verse, using unrhymed iambic pentameter, he was not the first to use this form. The first appearance of blank verse appeared in Henry Howard's Æneid, and Christopher Marlowe was the one who brought rise to the blank verse in Elizabethan English literature.
