Unfortunately I doubt that's the case. If it were, we wouldn't all be paying a toonie for a snail anymore.  Here are some past discussions. No one seems to know where all the little snails go, or if they're truly baby snails or just hitchhikers, but I can tell you, I don't know of anyone who's snail population increases on its own.
