2018 XLT Wet Clutch?

I have a 2018 F-150 XLT 3.5 EB with a 10 speed tranny. What I want to know is if I have 4H selected but do not have the selector pulled out to lock the axles, does it act like a wet clutch, whereas the axles can spin differentialy and perform as an AWD as Apposed to a 4WD? What led me to this question was when I was reading about the Raptor’s tricked transfer case (wet multi plate clutch). That allows it to perform as a full time AWD.

No, it is still a conventional 4wd whether the axles are locked or not. Pulling the selector out is just an electronic lock on the rear diff.
