Not necessarily.  If you use the "normal" build procedure, only the
Lisp files that are preloaded (and a few additional support files)
will be natively compiled, the rest will be left as *.elc files.

But I'm not sure I understand why you are asking this.

If libgccjit is not available, Emacs should use the *.elc files.
