Simple answer No.

There are a few larger vehicles, 3/4, and 1 ton trucks and SUV's etc that use Power Steering fluid from the power steering takeoff to power the brake assist system. In those cases the engine belt does power the brake system, but it will still work without engine power with more pedal pressure required.

In the rare cases the brake assist is powered from the power steering, the brakes and anti lock will still function, rather the engine is running or not or the belt has broken or not. Same goes for diesels that use and engine driven vacuum pump to provide vacuum for braking assist and other systems requiring vacuum.
