Who knows? It is a distinct possibility, but there is almost no mention of the personal lives of Jesus or the Apostles apart from their interactions with each other. However, there are people in the Bible who can be interpreted as GLB or T without huge stretches. One person is David, who is one of Jesus' distant ancestors. During Jesus' life, the area was under Roman occupation, so homosexuality was not unknown. Some think that the Roman soldier's servant who Jesus healed was also that soldier's lover. Jesus probably had knowledge of homosexual relationships and chose not to say anything about them, or at least no one recorded anything. It is important to read the Bible with an open mind, be aware that it is full of contradictions and complexities, and certainly not crystal clear on issues of sexuality. It is frustrating to hear Christians place authority every place else by Jesus Christ for their condemnations of GLBT people.
