No. Those holes are to hold it while you torque the nut.

You can put a screwdriver or piece of bar through the holes to assist in wheel spindle removal with a twisting action after removal of other bolts etc

Yes, you're exactly right. A #2 philips screwdriver will usually fit right in there and works great for helping get that spindle out.
