No. She is referred to as Mrs.Figg in both PS and OOTP. In GOF, when 
her name is given to Sirius by Dumbledore in a list of folk to be 
contacted, her style of address is not given, just her name.

I did comment in a previous post that the description of her did fit 
more with the UK stereotype of a spinster than a widow. However....
