Not really. Most desktop browsers support pixel scaling with Ctrl+Plus and Ctrl+Minus or user preferences, and they may even remember this setting for each domain.
So not only is a CSS pixel not always a device pixel, but it may be a different (fractional) number of device pixels on different websites.
