No, it does not; it does not even have to be a regular file.  However, if 
the above is to work, several conditions have to apply:

- allow_url_fopen = 1 (default),
  allow_url_include = 1 (the default is 0);

- Either PHP must not parse the resource accessed like that or it must
  generate from the parsed resource a PHP script resource;

- The Web server (hardware) must be able to resolve the domain name to an IP
  address, using its DNS client (software).

And it still would be comparably inefficient because of the unnecessary 
roundtrip.

Not with javascript. Nonsense propagates like wildfire in this field.
