No. PGP/MIME is multipart/signed on the top level, whatever the mime type of
the message is in the first MIME part, and application/pgp-signature in the
second MIME part.

application/pgp is a never standardized text/plain variant of an inline
signed message, with the main problem that some Mailers do not render it
correctly (since they assume that unknown application/... is binary, not
text).
