Yes, it is. It is the past tense of 'forbid'
An example might be, "He forbade me to cry when he left"
or "She forbade him to touch the cookies that she had baked for her bridge club."

yes forbade is a word. Forbade is the past tense of forbid. Although, you don't see it very often.
EXAMPLE
Amelia's mother forbade her to date Erik.
vs
"I am your mother, Amelia, I forbid you to date Erik"
