How strongly the tradition was enforced is full of myths, but yes. At least in the Nordic countries, medieval executioners had their ears removed so that they could be identified as executioners and told apart from the general public. Being an executioner was a lifelong job without alternate career choices. Needless to say it wasn't a popular profession, so if someone actually wanted the job they made damn sure he would keep it.
