I think the answer is "no" because I do not see any info pages installed
at ~/.config/guix/latest.  However, I have not checked the source code.

I looked at my INFOPATH, on GuixSD.  It includes
/run/current-system/profile/share/info, which does contain
guix.info.gz.  Indeed, guix is installed to my system profile, as shown
by:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix package -p /var/guix/profiles/system/profile --list-installed | grep guix
guix    0.14.0-9.bdf0c64        out     
/gnu/store/qxwhx6f0sdkxi72kplydc0r4ba0lghri-guix-0.14.0-9.bdf0c64
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Therefore, it seems that on my system, running "guix system reconfigure"
would also update the documentation.
