No, this is not a deep copy. Suppose, there is an element within the array, whose value is a mutable dictionary. If I change the that mutable dictionary (or its values), the copy and the dictionary would still compare equal to the copy (since children haven't been copied). Thus, I need to define a deepCopy method for NSDictionary (and NSArray, too).
