No, it will return that for all columns in that table that have a sequence default
If you add "col.attname" to the select list you can see each column.

    create sequence s1;
    create sequence s2;
    create table t1 (id1 integer default nextval('s1'), id2 integer default nextval('s2'), id3 integer default nextval('s2'));

    select sn.nspname as sequence_schema, s.relname as sequence_name, col.attname
    from pg_class s
      join pg_namespace sn on sn.oid = s.relnamespace 
      join pg_depend d on d.refobjid = s.oid and d.refclassid='pg_class'::regclass 
      join pg_attrdef ad on ad.oid = d.objid and d.classid = 'pg_attrdef'::regclass
      join pg_attribute col on col.attrelid = ad.adrelid and col.attnum = ad.adnum
      join pg_class tbl on tbl.oid = ad.adrelid 
      join pg_namespace n on n.oid = tbl.relnamespace 
    where s.relkind = 'S' 
      and d.deptype in ('a', 'n')  
      and n.nspname = 'public'
      and tbl.relname = 't1'

Returns

    sequence_schema | sequence_name | attname
    ----------------+---------------+--------
    public          | s1            | id1    
    public          | s2            | id2    
    public          | s2            | id3
