No. If that were the case, -lpng12 would appear on the linker command-line.
It doesn't.

Also:
$ pkg-config --libs gdk-pixbuf-2.0
-pthread -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lgobject-2.0 -lgthread-2.0 -lrt -lglib-2.0  
$ grep png /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/gdk-pixbuf-2.0.pc 
Requires.private: gmodule-no-export-2.0 libpng12
