The common rail engines like yours have an accelerator pedal that consists of a sensor that feeds your input from your right foot to the computer - no direct link to the engine.
The computer tells the injectors how to provide fuel.
When a diesel guy talks about TPS he is referring to the footpedal sensor per above. So yes.
When a gas guy talks about TPS he is referring to the sensor on the throttle body on the engine. In this case no, because diesels do not have throttle bodies.
