Yes, that's how it's supposed to work.

The default systemd dependencies are wrong or maybe non-existent - who knows with that piece of awfulness - and I don’t want to spend the time investigating
Looking at the Debian packages, the gpsd unit file seems to be the one
provided by upstream, which specifies "After=chronyd.service". But the
chrony service in Debian is named chrony (and not chronyd as in Fedora
for instance), so the ordering dependency is probably ignored. The
gpsd unit file in Debian should use After=chrony.service, or maybe the
upstream version should have both.
