No, adjectives don't change. You can make them more intense - hungry, hungrier, hungriest. But you don't change them with tense.

I am hungry. I was hungry. If I don't eat, soon I will be hungry. After three days without food, you'd be hungry too. If I'd eaten more, I would not have been hungry.
And so on.
