Not at all. sqlite3 is the SQLite command line tool and works on one
SQLite database. It is absolutely not aware of the fact that the digiKam
application uses two different database.

By the way, a cleanup, or integrity check, should require to run the
commands on the two databases used.
  sqlite3 -line digikam4.db 'vacuum;'
  sqlite3 -line digikam4.db 'pragma integrity_check;'

and also :
  sqlite3 -line thumbnails_digikam.db 'vacuum;'
  sqlite3 -line thumbnails_digikam.db 'pragma integrity_check;'

But sqlite3 itself works on the only database specified as argument
and doesn't care of whatever other databases you may have in the current
directory. Hopefully...
