Not by definition, and maybe yes and maybe no. Antibiotic is a term generally applied to something created by a micro-organism that inhibits the growth of other micro-organisms. In general, diffusible pigments are not antibiotic by this definition. But as regards whether or not such a pigment will inhibit micro-organic growth, some will and some won't.
