No, no, three times no. Cmd.exe is just a console application using the Windows console facility and it always was.

Starting with Windows 7, Microsoft introduced a special application called "conhost.exe" which provides the console implementation. Please stop thinking of cmd and the Windows console being one and the same. > [...] > This thread has it all.
