Yes,
We feed GDB the XML target description file, let GDB print the c file,
and then include these generated c files in *-tdep.c.  That is, in
gdb/features/Makefile, we have,

%.c: %.xml
        $(GDB) -nx -q -batch \
          -ex "set tdesc filename $<" -ex 'maint print c-tdesc' > $@.tmp
        sh ../../move-if-change $@.tmp $@

it generates gdb/features/*.c files from the corresponding .xml files.
They are included in gdb source, like, in gdb/i386-linux-tdep.c,

#include "features/i386/i386-linux.c"
#include "features/i386/i386-mmx-linux.c"
#include "features/i386/i386-mpx-linux.c"
#include "features/i386/i386-avx-mpx-linux.c"
#include "features/i386/i386-avx-linux.c"
#include "features/i386/i386-avx-avx512-linux.c"
#include "features/i386/i386-avx-mpx-avx512-pku-linux.c"
