No, it doesn’t. Digital PCM audio, as a concept, can only represent frequencies up to the sample rate used. Which can be anything. Typically 44kHz.
Going above that is pointless as humans are unable to perceive the ultrasonic frequencues that would unnecessarily include.
Lossless doesn’t mean “perfect recording”. By that logic lossless images or videos aren’t lossless, because they don’t include an infinite amount of pixels between every pixel, representing every photon that was captured.
Lossless refers to data-retention, not reality retention.
