I don't have official confirmation, but my experience is that at least the IntelliJ plugin version 100% seems to be using or remembering context from other parts of the project. It will know how to complete pieces of code in a brand new file, in ways that are very peculiar to my specific project.

I think IntelliJ generally has the feature to autocomplete code in markdown code blocks based on the current project. So that in itself is not a Copilot feature.
It's really useful because it will even understand Angular2 codebases and autocomplete custom components in html snippets.
