No, the parent comment is wrong. There is no "vertical integration" or control. It's just an open source project. If anyone was interested in maintaining the X11 support, it would happen, or at minimum it would happen in a fork, but there is currently nobody.
If someone is worrying about other parts suffering, they should start contributing now. I doubt this will happen though, nobody has turned up over the past several years, which is exactly why they consider dropping it. Honestly I think most developers who even bother with GTK4 are probably fully on board with wayland, the ones who aren't are still trying to use GTK2 and GTK3.
