It does, but, as a colloquialism, it’s reaching a disassociation from its original meaning and is now used to describe “asocial” behavior. You will often see shutins called neets (and I think this colloquial case change further disconnects the word from its original meaning) as well as someone who has a job but lives with their parents. The word police have not been enforcing the law, so unfortunately for any pedants this change in meaning is likely to stay. |

There are still many contexts where if you say NEET people will just think of the original definition, and others where people consider it the shut-in anime one.
