No, it does not. Depending on your situation, you may be able to use the Yahoo! Spelling Suggestion API. You can find information about it below:

Please note that you will probably want to consult a lawyer before incorporating the Yahoo Spelling Suggestion API into an application which utilizes the Google AJAX Search API so that you can go over the TOS and determine if the clause which prohibits the use of the Search API on the same page as results from other search engines would apply.
