No, InnoDB hot backup only backs up the table data, not the definitions.
You need to back those up separately.  This is all explained here:

http://www.innodb.com/manual.php#Backing_up_myisam_and_innodb

There's also a perl script that can help you with the backup.  Even
though it says MyISAM, you also need this for the InnoDB table
definitions.

Good luck,
Ware
