Is it possible to create a patch (diff files) for all files that were affected during a commit AFTER the commit? These files would have same version number and I need the diff of each file from their prior version.

If you know commit number, then use
svn diff -c N path
Where N is commit number and path is path to your working copy.

I did
svn help diff and it told me about svn diff --old=OLD-URL[@OLDREV] --new=NEW-URL[@NEWREV] which can also compare two revisions.

Might not work straight away if diff-tool has been set in subversion configs. You might want to add
--diff-cmd diff to this call.cprn
Also, you need to specify a path (or multiple paths) to only include selected files. Otherwise your patch will include the entire changeset.
Alternative, when using windows + tortoiseSVN :Go to your sourcecode directory, rightclick on the directory (to open the tortoise context-menu) and select "Show Log", select both revisions (ctrl-click) and then right-click and select "Show differences as unified diff" from the context menu. A window will pop up showing the differences, which you can then save as a patch.
Update: Holding Shift, when clicking on "show differences as unified diff" makes a dialog pop up where you can select the diff options (ignore eol changes, ignore whitespace changes, ignore all whitespaces). This is useful if e.g. the line-endings changed between versions (the entire file would otherwise show up as 'changed')

If you know the revision numbers (e.g. 123 and 124) you can use:
svn diff -r123:124 path/to/my_project_folder > ~/my_project_changes_123_124.patch

Though already answered simple version is as below,
1, Source Code Location > Tortoize SVN > show log
2, Select the revision which has your commit
3, Right Click > select > Show changes as unified diff
4, Pop up with differences of all files in that commit come
5, Copy the entire content and create a new file with the extension of .patch
