If this is the hose from the coolant reservoir that goes back to the radiator filler neck neck yes. Best thing to do is with engine cold, remove radiator cap and check coolant level directly at the radiator. Add proper type of anti-freeze if needed.
Also, some old Dex-cool sludge regardless of the flush can cause contamination of the level sensor located about 3 inches below the radiator filler neck or the sensor could be bad. See pic below. You can access the level sensor by removing the passenger side headlamp assembly.
