No. There are five parables in the Old Testament and some symbolic stories that are similar to parables. For example:

The parable of the poor man who had raised a single lamb which a wealthy neighbor took to set before a guest (2 Samuel 12:1-4); intended to illustrate the sin which David had committed with Bathsheba, Uriah's wife.

The parable of the wise woman of Tekoah, who induced David to make peace with his son Absalom ( 2 Samuel 12:6-8).
