No, "well mannered" does not have a hyphen when used as a compound adjective after the noun it modifies (e.g., "The child is well mannered"). However, it may be hyphenated as "well-mannered" when used before a noun (e.g., "a well-mannered child"). Always consider the context to determine the correct form.
