In the UK, yes, almost certain.
Worldwide as many others have said, no.

A Russian TU-154 caught fire on the ground on start-up IIRC, and there was a large loss of life.
Can't seem to find that although it may well be the case - such is that usually would stick in my mind, nearest is a runway overrun due to RTO (Cubana 389) which technically satisfies "never got off the ground" (I think in this case).
