Only indirectly. E.g. POSIX says sys/types.h defines size_t, and C99
says size_t must be no wider than uintmax_t, which is defined by
stdint.h and by inttypes.h.
Also, while we're on the subject, POSIX 1003.1-200x draft 6 says that
there must be a compilation environment where size_t is no wider than
long, and the GNU coding standards say that it is safe to assume that
size_t is no wider than long. The only known potential porting target
that violates this assumption is Microsoft Windows on the 64-bit Intel
platform.
