To your, literally, bottom line question . . . and keeping in mind, more likely . . . No.
More quickly, yes, if the true temperature of the air is low enough to gel the fuel in calm air in the first place.
Say you have a fuel mixture that gels at 10*F. You can leave that tractor sit out in 15* weather in a howling NW wind. It will not cool below 15*.
Now say you had it out and running in that weather. You might, in the absence of wind and with not a lot of fuel in the tank, expect heated fuel from the return line to heat that fuel eventually to 25*.
Running it in a wind at 15* will strip away the heat faster, so you may not get to my hypothetical 25*, but it won't drop below the ambient 15*.
Park the tractor and shut it off, taking away the heat source of the return line, and I agree that the fuel in the system will cool faster, but it still won't drop below the ambient 15*.
