Nope.
Paths in .gitignore means git ignores them. Doesn't mean the file doesn't exist. It means it's not in source control.
An example is a .env file. It may very well be _required_ in many PHP or node projects but it's going to be ignored.

It just means that IF it's not in source control it won't be added to a change set automatically. gitignore has no effect on files which are already tracked, and even files which are not currently tracked can be explicitly added.
