No, BACKUPS and ARCHIVES have just one entry per file, regardless of the
number of storage pools it's in. NUM_FILES from OCCUPANCY counts the
number of files per storage pool, so it includes primary/active/copy pools.

You can look at the system catalog to see the schema of those tables:

SELECT COLNAME,TYPENAME FROM syscat.columns where tabname='OCCUPANCY'
SELECT COLNAME,TYPENAME FROM syscat.columns where tabname='BACKUPS'
SELECT COLNAME,TYPENAME FROM syscat.columns where tabname='ARCHIVES'
