No, not directly. But at least one of the guys who worked on the franchise, Star Trek:Enterprise's production illustrator Doug Drexler, thought there would be, in at least one future timeline.
In Star Trek:Enterprise's episode "Azati Prime" we are shown the 26th Century starship Enterprise NCC 1701-J which was designed by Doug Drexler. Here is a quote from Memory Alpha in regards to it.
Drexler saw the Enterprise-J "as a multi-generational vessel, that had
large parks, entertainment zones, and entire universities on board.
The ship is so large that turbolifts would be replaced with site to
site transporters. [It] had one deflector, recognizably descended from
the NX. I opted for spindly nacelle struts because I felt it suggested
a technology beyond what we were familiar with. They are beyond
transwarp. They can fold space, and they are exploring other galaxies
besides the Milky Way."
So obviously it's only background detail, and it's background detail to a now impossible future, but I think it shows the guys behind the scenes were thinking about it.
