No. Faulkner call Homer Barron a "man's man" but in Faulkner's time that would not have been code for homosexuality. It meant that Barron liked to do masculine things: gambling, drinking, chasing women. He didn't want to settle down to a life of a wife and family; he preferred to be free to do as he pleased.

In "A Rose for Emily," it is implied that Emily Grierson's husband was not gay, as their marriage is described as traditional but troubled. Emily's husband is characterized as distant and controlling, rather than showing any indications of homosexuality. Emily's isolation and her husband's death play pivotal roles in shaping her character and actions in the story.
