No, absolutely not.

The point of Apple’s requirement for age verification is to cover themselves with respect to the OSA and also with new legislation in California. Not verifying your age, blocks you from installing 18+ rated apps from the App Store, and a couple of other things regarding settings. But this is absolutely not shared with anyone else, so no; websites hosting adult content will still need to check themselves.
