I guess it depends on who you ask.
"Ancient Jewish and Christian writers, such as Ecclesiasticus, Josephus, Philo, and Origen were essentially in full agreement that the Pentateuch was written solely by Moses. The Mishnah and the Talmud also confirm this. "
...from: http://www.religioustolerance.org/chr_tora.htm
...there are also persuasions on the same website that multiple authors wrote the torah, citing doublets and rare triplets: some of which I read through and seem to be explainable, but i'm no historian, archaeologist, or theologian.
