No, the svg produced by matplotlib is a vector format. (Just look at a matplotlib-generated svg file in a text editor.) When you open a svg file in gimp, gimp converts it into pixels, because gimp only works with pixel-based images. I seem to recall that someone created an emf (enhanced metafile) backend in matplotlib. Have you tried that? -- Jouni K.
