"thread local" has a specific meaning and refers to objects declared
thread_local, which have "thread storage duration", which means
storage for the variables lasts as long as the thread is running.
Automatic variables have "automatic storage duration" instead, which
means they are on the stack of the calling thread and their storage
only lasts until exit from the block in which they are created.
If you're asking whether each thread has its own copy of the variable,
yes, of course.
