Well, no, but there's not many TL4 spacecraft, either, so that technique wouldn't be needed. But on TL5+ ships, normal refrigeration ought to be completely doable.

Even on TL 4 or TL 3 or even lower worlds there will be plenty of solutions shipped in from off world, that can be operated at lowers TLs.
The Icy Ball refrigerator for example, as long as they can build a fire they can make ice.

Reefer cars started 1870s in the US with intercontinental meat and fruit/vegetables. Not mechanical, no IC refrigeration, they used ice.

They used ice, but by 1870 commercial ice manufacturing was available. So they could make ice where it could not be practically shipped in.

Again, as noted.
