Yes, he was actually beneath the Whomping Willow a couple of times in the story as an adult.
The Whomping Willow was planned when Sirius Black was a student at Hogwarts. He,and two other of his friends, decided they wanted to be shape-shifters. They each had their animal,(Sirius' was the wolf), and Sirius would change into this every month on the full moon. It soon became very hard to hide this secret, until Dumbledore came to know of this. He then created the Whomping Willow, which had a secret room at the bottom. Every Month, Sirius would go into the Whomping Willow and turn into the wolf and then come out again soon after without anyone coming to know.
