Did he personally? Probably not. In his time, most female roles were played by young boys. So by the time he was writing, he likely would have been too old for that sort of thing.

But plenty of boys dressed up as girls to play Shakespearean parts. Juliet, Cordelia, Lady Macbeth, Ophelia, Desdemona - all played by boys dressed as girls.
