No, we didn't, and still don't, know that.

We have, to this point, seen six people we know were on the island:  Jack,
Kate, Hurley, Sayid, Ben, and Aaron.

Now, the name "the Oceanic Six" would make me think that Ben shouldn't be
counted among that -- but we don't *know* that.  He could easily have
taken
the identity of one of the other passengers -- given the number of
pass****ts
we saw, I'm sure he has the resources to fake another identity.

Aaron is even less certain, though -- he wasn't on the passenger manifest,
and
Kate seems to have convinced the world that he's her child.  Were a group
of
folks to be rescued in real life, I could see counting a kid born after
the
crash as one of them.  Or not.
