Not exatly. The search horizon is limited by the hosts/ultrapeers you are connected to. A search query is sent to all your host you are connected to and they send it to their hosts - this is done 7 times. The TTL (time to live) is set to seven because higher values aren´t reliable.

Of course you can limit the displayed results by hits, but this doesn´t affect the horizon itself.
