No, this used to be the case, but isn't any more. Captures using lossless capture cards are called Webrips and generally disliked because they have to be reencoded (losing quality) and can only be ripped in realtime. For a long time now the better p2p groups (and even some scene) have figured out how to extract the encryption keys directly from the EME modules. So most of the Netflix rips you find on torrents these days are actually byte-for-byte copies of what you would view on Netflix.
Actually they should be byte-for-byte copies, but generally aren't, since Netflix makes you jump through half a dozen hoops to get the highest quality streams, so pirated copies are actually much better quality than what you can get on Netflix.
