Not quite; it reimplements the pip functionality (in a much smarter way). I'm pretty sure it reimplements the venv functionality, too, although I'm not entirely sure why (there's not a lot of room for improvement).
("venv" is short for "virtual environment", but "virtualenv" is specifically a heavyweight Python package for creating them with much more flexibility than the standard library option. Although the main thing making it "heavyweight" is that it vendors wheels for pip and Setuptools — possibly multiple of each.)
