Perhaps not directly, however, that is what he is suggesting.

Trump said “there will be no amnesty.” I choose to believe his very direct statement.
And he can keep his word too. Either Congress declares that they are natural born citizens, but just the dreamers mind you, not the parents or any other relatives, or they do nothing & their deportations begin. See how that works? No amnesty, Congress claims them to be citizens. Congress holds the power when it comes to immigration, as spelled out in the Constitution. Trump is working within the framework of the Constitution. So you should indeed take him at his word, and his word he will keep. But also realize the subtleties President Trump always put into play as well.
