Yes, Euclid's fifth postulate implies the existence of parallel lines.

If a straight line L falls on two straight lines m and n such that the sum of the interior angles on one side of L is two right angles, then by Euclid's fifth postulate, the line will not meet on this side of L. Next, you know that the sum of the interior angles on the other side of line L will also be two right angles. Therefore, they will not meet on the other side also.
So, the lines m and n never meet and are, therefore, parallel.
