No, the pdftex formats are:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
# from pdftex:
pdftex pdftex language.def -translate-file=cp227.tcx *pdfetex.ini
etex pdftex language.def -translate-file=cp227.tcx *etex.ini
pdfetex pdftex language.def -translate-file=cp227.tcx *pdfetex.ini
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
That’s copied from fmtutil.cfg. The first word on each line is the
format name, the second is the TeX engine. In the list of disabled
formats you see a whole bunch of formats that use the pdftex engine, but
they do not result in pdftex.fmt.
