No. "Malpigian tubules are structures found in insects, like grasshoppers, that aid in excretion. They excrete nitrogenous wastes wastes into the digestive tract and from there, out of the body." -According to the Barron's SAT Biology E/M subject test book. There was a practice question that asked "Which of the following are matched incorrectly?" The correct answer was Malpighian tubules-earthworms.

No, earthworms do not have Malpighian tubules. Instead, they have nephridia, which are organs that function in excretion and osmoregulation by filtering waste and excess fluids from the blood.
