No, NeTEx defines an exchange format to exchange data between systems; it does not constrain the internal representation used by a given system to store or process the data, nor require the use of a specific database design. That said, any database supporting NeTEx data will need to have corresponding elements that can be mapped into the elements in the subset of NeTEx supported.
