No.

PostScript files don't have a resolution. A PostScript file is a
program which draws graphics onto a framebuffer (a 2D array of
pixels). The framebuffer has a resolution determined by the hardware.

Any rasters which are embedded in a PostScript file will have a
resolution. For ps.map's "raster" command, this is determined by the
current region settings.
