No. The Building Regs will deliver zero carbon and the Code for Sustainable Homes is a more holistic measure of sustainable development than PassivHaus. Moreover, there is no logic in just concentrating on homes.
In reality, the construction industry is not geared up to deliver air-tight buildings and will concentrate (if it has to) on meeting the demands of the Building Regs.
