No, /usr/bin/python points to python2.7:

$ ls -l /usr/bin/python*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     9 Apr  8  2021 /usr/bin/python -> python2.7*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    14 Apr  8  2021 /usr/bin/python-config -> python2-config*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     9 Apr  8  2021 /usr/bin/python2 -> python2.7*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    16 Apr  8  2021 /usr/bin/python2-config -> python2.7-config*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 14392 Feb 13  2021 /usr/bin/python2.7*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  1681 Feb 13  2021 /usr/bin/python2.7-config*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     9 Jan 18 13:46 /usr/bin/python3 -> python3.9*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    16 Jan 18 13:46 /usr/bin/python3-config -> python3.9-config*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 14392 Jan 15 20:42 /usr/bin/python3.9*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  3067 Jan 15 20:42 /usr/bin/python3.9-config*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  3020 Apr 18  2021 /usr/bin/pythontex*

Looks like existing practice on SBo is split between "python setup.py" and python2 setup.py", with the majority being "python setup.py":

$ git grep "python setup.py" | wc -l
662
$ git grep "python2 setup.py" | wc -l
298
$ git grep "python3 setup.py" | wc -l
671
