Very deep down, yes. But on a more superficial level, the fears may not be very apparent for someone of a particular type, so I think that FEAR is basically the Vice of the E6, which can assume various forms such as cowardice, excess of worrying, excess of caution, anxiety, etc. But the type which has as its base - and what takes him/her away from the Holy Self or True Self - fear, is E6. In other types there are of course fears, but to approach Enneagram saying it's about fears just fits for E6s imo. I prefer the Vice/Virtue dichotomy.
