Fortunately no.
They began a project lead by Werner Heisenberg to build atomic bombs. However they made some mistakes (e.g. not realizing that commercial graphite is contaminated with boron [which captures neutrons] they chose the much more expensive heavy water instead as the moderator for their reactors, an incorrect calculation of the critical mass of uranium-235 by more than an order of magnitude too high suggested that if they did build an atomic bomb it would be too heavy for any bomber that could be built during the war to carry) that caused the project to be scaled back to just research on reactors that might be scaled up after the Nazis won the war to build nuclear power plants. It also appears they may have been unaware of plutonium.

Originally the USSR was assisting them with reactors and was promising to supply nuclear weapons if needed, so China would not have to develop their own.
