No. It does not.
1) The module license is not a precise license indicator.
2) SPDX License identifiers are well defined and standardized. 'GPL' is
NOT a valid SPDX identifier.
The usage of SPDX identifiers and the relevance of the MODULE_LICENSE()
string are well documented in:
Documentation/process/license-rules.rst
or for your conveniance at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/license-rules.html
