No, see Info gnus:

     To turn caching on, set ‘gnus-use-cache’ to ‘t’.  By default, all
  articles ticked or marked as dormant will then be copied over to your
  local cache (‘gnus-cache-directory’).  

(That probably shouldn've been mentioned in the docstring for
gnus-use-cache, which is rather misleading: "use the cache to the full
extent of the law" sounds like "cache everything").
