No. Not even close.
Consider mass of Jupiter. It's the largest planet, but is still only 0.01% of the Sun's mass.
So if you added up the masses of all the planets, the dwarf planets, every asteroid, every comet and every rock or speck of dust you could find, altogether it would still be far less than 0.1% of the Sun's mass.

When the rocky material,from the super nova that spawned the solar system,crashed into the hydrogen field that became our sun and us it's mass was less than 1% of the mass that makes up all our planets and the rest of the rocky debris in the solar system.
The existing hydrogen field supplied the rest

I dont think so. Simply because, the sun is emitting a huge amount of energy from its nuclear fission and fusion reaction. Since energy and mass are inter related and its proved by the formulae E=MC^2, Our beloved sun is generating vast amout of energy in the form of light,sound and heat with radiation. Therefore, the sun's mass is decreasing. maybe the sun's initial mass, when its formed is greater than the sum of all planent mass. but now, it is not the same. Furthermore Pluto is not a planet anymore, thus we have only 8 planets left. and none of the planets are emitting energy as great as our sun. at the time being, im sure that the sun's mass is more than the sum of all planets mass together. But at 1 point, it'll be same and it'll be less. its just the matter of time. good question anyway...
