Yes. The very first coat of arms was defined on August 24, 1821. It was an imperial symbol much akin to Spain's coat of arms, while Mexico was still fighting its war of independence. When Mexico became a monarchy, it switched to an eagle devouring a snake, but such symbol was more akin to Rome's imperial eagles. It changed again in 1823, 1864, 1867, 1893, 1916 and 1934 until its present form, adopted on September 16, 1968.
