I don't believe so. I think it's path-based, but you can check it out

"fill factor" wrt nested set means not using consecutive numbering of
the bounds, leaving space for inserted nodes. Table rewrites might be
necessary from time to time as inserts fill in the gaps. You could
also do nested sets using numeric rather than integer, which gives
you a lot more flexibility.
