No, but Project Excalibur was verry similar to the Golden Eye plot. Only difference is that it used nuclear explosions to pump x-ray lasers that would shoot down enemy ballistic missiles rather than directed EMPs.
Fun fact though, detonating nuclear weapons in outer space causes very wide-spread EMPs. It's a very good thing that the Starfish Prime test was done out in the Pacific instead of at the Nevada test site.
