Probably not.

A few thoughts:

o Do you have unintended empty paragraphs 
(created by pressing Enter again) between 
paragraphs? Display non-printing characters to reveal if this is the case.

o You talk of adjusting line spacing, but there 
are also "Above paragraph" and "Below paragraph" 
settings under Spacing. Have you got those set to zero?

o Note that paragraph properties override 
paragraph style properties. So if you have 
spacing above or below set in some or all of your 
paragraphs' own properties, this will show 
despite the style definitions. Select all 
relevant paragraphs (you can do this together) 
and use Format | Paragraph... | Indents & Spacing 
| Spacing (or right-click | Paragraph... | 
Indents & Spacing | Spacing) and set "Above 
paragraph" and "Below paragraph" there to zero.

I trust this helps.
