Maybe. Or maybe she was eaten on the journey from the Walls to the Hometown. By what Reiner said to Annie to coerce her into removing Marco's gear, it is safe to assume she and her family were originally living inside the Walls and by some way escaped and have run into this Hometown and were probably shunned there upon knowning where they came from and in order for them to receive proper recognition, her father enlisted her in this "Retake the Coordinate" mission and should they succeed, they would finally be recognized by the Hometown people and not be considered from that "defiled race" anymore.
