Mostly yes, but sometimes no, see below.

Most DJGPP programs don't include a built-in DPMI host, rather the stub 
loads the DPMI host if DPMI services aren't available.  But you can bind 
a DJGPP program with the PMODE/DJ stub which includes the PMODE DPMI 
host; in that case, the DPMI host (server) is indeed part of the DJGPP 
program.
