No. If you wanna get technical about it GPL is structured around ensuring every user can see and modify the code, and do whatever they want with it, except prevent people from doing the first thing (seeing and modifying the code). It's sort of a vacuously false thing where "provided they meet some kind of criteria you set up" has the criteria of ensuring the original clause of "a set of licenses that allow users to see and modify your source code".
