i believe so, but for reasons different from Trump's arguments.
the key point is that the media was extremely supportive of Biden and not of Trump. the margin of victory was small in key states. so if the media was presenting an even-handed position and not doommongering the whole time, it seems quite probable that Trump would have won.
so the argument is that the media elite has manipulated the population into doing something the population would not have done by itself. this is not certain of course, but it is a reasonable hypothesis.
hence the US is not a democracy but a country controlled by a tiny media elite which has cohered around its preferred candidate.
