NO

The DAC generates a stepped ladder function, the reconstruction filter
turns this into the recovered waveform.

In the case of many modern, oversampling DACs, the reconstruction
filter is a simple 2nd order analogue filter.  No limited number of
calculations.  Yes the transform theory for the filter is a set of
infinite sums, but the filter is a filter.
