He sure does. Shortly after murdering Desdemona, Othello learns that his suspicions of her (for being adulterous with Casio) were unfounded, and that the whole plot to make him jealous was engineered by Iago. Rather than be returned to Venice as a prisoner, he asks for a moment to speak. He delivers one last great speech, in which he reminds the assembled witnesses of his prior great feats on behalf of Venice, and, at the conclusion, he produces a hidden weapon (usually a dagger of some sort), and slays himself.

Yes. Othello kills himself because he regretted killing Desdemona.
