Yes, all his children were born between 1772 and 1785 which is long before he became president. Only 2 lived to see him as president and they were grown.

Jefferson may or may not have fathered children with Sally Hemmings, a slave at Monticello, whose children lived there. Jefferson had six children with his wife. Two survived to adulthood.
