In all likelihood, yes, although we do not have records of performances of some of the plays in Shakespeare's lifetime. Since the First Folio was taken from the collection of scripts held by the King's Men after Shakespeare's death, it seems likely that all of them had been performed, otherwise why would the company have the scripts? Of the two plays now agreed to be Shakespeare's which were not in the First Folio, Pericles was published in Quarto form during Shakespeare's lifetime (and no play was published before it was performed) and references in other works suggest that Two Noble Kinsmen was performed in 1613 or 1614.
