@jeremykong,
Without other context to go by, yes.

@jeremykong,
It does not exatly mean "I have already said that". It means "I declared the state of affairs or set of facts that I just described."

E.g.

We were talking about Joe. He is an alcoholic and a thief, and I said as much. (I said he is an alcoholic and a thief)
