No, the GNU Coding Standards say the opposite.  From Section 4.6:

The first line is meant to be easy for a program to parse; the version
number proper starts after the last space. In addition, it contains the
canonical name for this program, in this format: 

          GNU Emacs 19.30
     

The program's name should be a constant string; don't compute it from
argv[0]. The idea is to state the standard or canonical name for the
program, not its file name. There are other ways to find out the precise
file name where a command is found in PATH.
