No, Yoast SEO does not automatically update the sitemap based on changes to your robots.txt file. The robots.txt file is managed separately within Google Search Console or your server configuration. You'll need to manually regenerate and resubmit your sitemap through Yoast SEO after modifying your robots.txt file to ensure Google continues to crawl the intended pages.
