Nope. But I have heard from other captains that had their sons/daughters who where working as interns ride along with them in the jumpseat. A working intern of course is sanctioned by the FAA and the company for jumpseat privileges (behind other employed crew members).
Outside of that, I've never heard of any body riding in the jumpseat other than those specifically outlined in the ops specs, even before 9-11.
