No. Diamonds reflect any available light, including moonlight, starlight and other ambient light.

If you were deep within a cave without light -- in absolute darkness -- your diamond would not shine.

Diamonds have a high refractive index, which causes them to reflect and refract light, giving them their characteristic sparkle. It is not specifically related to their density, but rather their crystalline structure and how light interacts with it.
