Possibly but not necessarily; one of the models is where the fabric of spacetime itself is constructed from an automata where individual graph edges reconfigure as part of the evolution of the automata; this could be responsible for relativistic distortions of spacetime.
It gets really interesting when you consider that the lowest-level edges do not have to obey what appears to be local speed-of-light restrictions — entangled photons could have a “thread” cutting across the higher-level emergent spacetime that could provide a simple mechanism for “action at a distance” that does not actually allow external information to be transferred from one location to another, just information internal to the functioning of a superdeterministic universe. (Though, strictly speaking, if you believe in superdeterminism, you don’t need such a mechanism, but it could be useful for convincing other humans.)
