No, when they first spot the TIE fighter flying towards the Death Star, it's mentioned that a ship that small wouldn't have a hyperdrive and couldn't be that far into space alone.
I believe X-Wings had hyperdrives and possibly A-Wings too, but most small ships didn't. Also, I believe Vader's ship was specially equipped with one too, where most TIEs were not.
