No. The fuel filter filters the liquid gasoline that is pumped to the engine.

The charcoal canister traps the gasoline vapors from the fuel system so they can be burned in the engine.

While topping up 2002 Camry v6 fuel tank to full I am getting missing why this happens always same problem occurs during immediate starting after stopping?

It usually happens when the sensor responsible for overfilling fails, gas starts to go in the charcoal vapor canister and contaminates it. It causes vacuum system (EVAP) to malfunction. You need to check the sensor or valve what ever you have in your car. You might have to replace the charcoal canister.
