In the bits that (should) matter to end users (ie. libpq), yes, it does.

This depends entirely on what you mean. No, PostgreSQL isn't a
multithreaded application. Yes, you can write multithreaded
applications that use PostgreSQL. Consult the documentation for
whatever connection library you're interested in using (libpq, JDBC,
npgsql, etc.) to find out what thread-related issues you'll need to
consider using that library.
