Default Idle mixture

On carbs with dual needle setups, yes... generally speaking.
On carbs with air-bleed idle mixture control... no.

The air bleed carbs merely open/close a small hole which allows outside air in.

On the others, the low end adjustment also affects the overall fuel flow for a given throttle position.
