Yes: Depression often has impacting factors on sexual motivation and drive. Depression makes you not want to do things you used to enjoy or make you happy. As your depression reduces you sex drive will likely improve. There is also a possibility there is a relationship issue. I would seek therapeutic support for better answers.
