No. I have a friend who discovered programming at around age 40. He is now ~45 and doing Ruby on Rails programming instead of his old blue collar job.
That said, I think you probably won't succeed as a programmer unless programming seems fun and interesting to you. If you've worked with programmers, but never tried programming before now, that might be a warning sign.
Still, best way to find out is to try. Start with something small and simple and see if you enjoy the process. Good luck.
