Without access to the full text of Tanenbaum's works it is difficult to answer definitively. Given that his published works on operating systems and computer networks deal with the interaction of different software components, computer operating system functions, and the that the term middleware existed prior to the first publication of Structured Computer Organization (1976); it is reasonable to assume that Tanenbaum did not need to specifically define the term in his works.
