I think so. I know he wrote a couple of song on The Piper at the Gates of Dawn and one song on Saucerful of Secrets which I believe he received royalties from long after his departure from the band. It's a tragic story really. There's this sad anecdote of Waters about a bald and fat weirdo brushing his teeth compulsively and hanging out in the studio where the band was. Waters later realized it was Syd and he started sobbing.
