Generally, yes, but I've seen a lot of GUIs created in FORTH as well. It's "general purpose" enough that you could use it pretty much anywhere, though your experience would be best with a FORTH that supports C FFI and in contexts where that's a reasonable approach. I do high level scripting in FORTH sometimes, for example.
The issues I have with FORTH is it's actually pretty hard to use it for substantially complex/large applications due to lacking many modern facilities for organizing code. Most don't have the concept of modules and simply including other .fs files is not sufficient due to namespace collisions
