No. The most common letters of the alphabet are on the lefthand side of the keyboard. They are e, r, s, t, followed by a. On the righthand side of the keyboard, only n and l are common letters. The spacebar can be used by either hand and is a personal comfort choice, as is the caps function.
This answer is specific to typing and not other types of computer keyboard functions such as keyboard shortcuts and maneuvering through documents with hot keys, with hands or one.
If the keyboardist uses lots of numbers, much can depend on whether or not they use the number keys across the top of the keyboard. Again, that's split equally between the hands. But, if they use the number pad for numbers, then it's purely a righthanded thing.
Similarly, if the keyboardist likes to use keyboard shortcuts, use of both hands is equal. But, if the keyboardist likes to use their mouse, then the righthand dominates that function.
It all really depends on the keyboardists and their use preferences.
