Yes
Sprites reference both the original Sprite assets and Sprite Atlas resulting in increased memory usage
Steps to reproduce:
1. Play the attached "TestFor1071494.zip" project's SampleScene
2. In the Profiler window go to Memory view in Detailed mode
3. Click Take Sample: Editor
4. In the batch viewer go to Assets -> Texture2D
5. Notice the entries for both the Sprite Atlas and each individual Sprite asset
Expected result: Sprites only reference the Sprite Atlas
Actual result: Sprites reference the Sprite Atlas and the original Sprite assets

Resolution Note (2020.1.X):
In Editor both Original texture and Atlas texture are held as references by SpriteFrame. Hence the info shown by Profiler. When building Player/AssetBundles ONLY the Atlas texture is referenced and serialized. Hence you see the additional texture as reference in playmode.
