No, because kvm doesn't mount the device. It just sets the loop device and uses it internally. The scripts for stopping/destroying a guest should take care of removing the association, but they're not. As I said, it's probably a bug, and I suggest you search/add it to bugzilla for the GUI or application you use to control it.
I think the transcript in my message https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2007-June/msg05672.html clearly demonstrates that this has nothing to do with kvm. Andras
