Since there were really only two high level Jedi Yoda and Ben, yeah. Mainly because they both saw Sidious talking to Anakin as Lord Vader.
Ben didn't know that Vader was alive though. I doubt there were many available news channels to Tattoine, and Obi didn't have a 60 inch plasma TV at home.
I don't think that Sidious ever made it public that Anakin was Vader. Tarkin deduced it in the book Tarkin. Probably some of the surviving Clones that went with Anakin to the temple know that Anakin is Vader. But even Vader didn't promote it, the name Anakin Skywalker had no meaning to him.
I didn't like that Reva knew and was shouting that Anakin was Vader and still alive. I think it would have been better if Obi found out right at their first confrontation.
In the EU book Rise of the Dark Lord, Ben found out early on Tattoine. Bail Organa probably does know that Anakin is Vader though. He was at the Jedi temple that night
