Only if you explicitly switch over to run level three. X is usually running, automatically, in run level five. But you can start and stop X by hand, and remain in run level three. You can use the telinit command to switch levels, and it will start and stop X, as well, if the defaults are left to run it on level five, and not to run it on level three. -- (Currently testing FC5, but still running FC4, if that's important.)
