Best I can tell, and according to WatchMojo, yes.

But wasn't it The Force Awakens that first established him to go into exile rather than fight the First Order? How did everyone besides me THINK Luke was going to react when Rey found him? I knew he wasn't just going to rush to the Resistance's side, he'd need a lot of persuasion. And in the end he sacrificed himself to give them a fighting chance.

But as noted above, perhaps the points TLJ revealed about his backstory with Kylo had an impact on that.
