Not quite - that's the 2.1 buildtools so it contains Python 2, not 3. We do have the 2.2 M1 version that does contain Python 3: http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/releases/yocto/milestones/yocto-2.2_M1/buildtools/poky-glibc-x86_64-buildtools-tarball-core2-64-buildtools-nativesdk-standalone-2.1%2bsnapshot-20160621.sh (Still 64-bit though.)
