I would suggest that that may be the case on the rare occasion, but not the norm. In one of the videos you can see an example of that happening where there is what looks like a firefly whizzing around at low altitude close to the target. However the majority of the ricochets are full projectiles just based on the speed and trajectory of the flight. No tracer material on its own has the mass to carry that flight path.
Either way, it is still a situation where high speed materials are leaving the safety of the backstop.
