No.  It's a C module.  You send the actual cookie from your application
after the user logs in.  Their example is a CGI or servlet, but you can
use literally anything.  The cookie is a ticket saying that this person
is verified to be in group X.  All that mod_auth_tkt does is read the
cookie and use it to check against a list of groups with access to
specific sections of the site.
