AFAIK, yes, it does.

According to the manual
(http://docs.wxwidgets.org/2.8.6/wx_commondialogsoverview.html), "Some
dialogs have both platform-dependent and platform-independent
implementations, so that if underlying windowing systems do not provide
the required functionality, the generic classes and functions can stand in."
