No, it just replaces the session manager or window manager
(see /etc/X11/Xsession.d/50x11-common_determine-startup).
But /etc/X11/Xsession runs as normal.

In short, /etc/X11/Xsession defines USERXSESSION=$HOME/.xsession
which is used by /etc/X11/Xsession.d/50x11-common_determine-startup
to set the STARTUP variable, and this variable is used at the end
of the X session init, in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/99x11-common_start,
which does: exec $STARTUP

If you want to replace the system default X11 session, do this
with a .xinitrc script. By default, it is /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc,
which does: . /etc/X11/Xsession
