No, competing stores will be a full native app, just as the Digital Markets Act requires.
It is yet to be seen what competitors will charge, however one thing is a universal constant: competition usually brings prices down. Apple makes enormous profits on that 30%. This leaves from for competitors to charge much less and still earn enormous profits.
