No. The book known as John's Gospel was originally anonymous, so we will never really know who wrote it, but certainly the author was not John the Baptist. Late in the second century, the fourth gospel was attributed to the apostle John.

John the Baptist had his own disciples. The Bible says John's disciples practiced fasting (Mark 2:18), and he taught them to pray (Luke 11:1). Additionally, while John the Baptist was in prison, he sent two of his own disciples to ask Jesus if he was the coming One (Matt. 11:2-3). There may have been some competing interests between John and Jesus' disciples.
