>>Question:  Were the apostles baptized in water in Jesus' name?<<

Answer:
Paul was definitly.  
Acts 22:13-16
13      Came unto me, and stood, and said unto me, Brother Saul, receive
thy sight....now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away
thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.

Acts 9:17-18
17      And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting
his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared
unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest
receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.
18      And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and
he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.
(KJV)
