No. Each PDF/X-x standard is separately defined. Moreover, it is more 
correct to define them as PDF/X-1a:2003 for example.

The basic PDF 1.3 export options for "Printer" in Scribus 1.2.x and 
1.3.x provide the major ingredients for PDF/X-1a:2003

All images and colors in CMYK
No ICC color profiles in the images
All fonts fully embedded
No transparency or partial transparency. 

I have filed: http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=2264 and will add 
this to the 1.3.x roadmap. It is an important feature.
