Ah, you would need to ask them for a concrete answer, but my understanding is that it is completely baked in.

Long optional explanation:

I say that because I think Memileo sculpted the actual brushstroke in Blender (https://krita-artists.org/uploads/default/original/3X/5/7/57...) and rendered lighting at different angles, and exported each as an image.

Each rendered image becomes 1 frame of the "animated brushtip", with the option that each frame matches "direction" rather then being "incremental", and thats how you get the faux-light!

The cool thing is that you can extract and edit the animated brushtip in Krita e.g. this one "https://github.com/Draneria/Metallics-by-Draneria_Krita-Brus..."

Which means theoretically, you could use photo editing to change the height I think!

Great stuff, it's good to hear how brushes work in these programs, reminds me of a great chat with one of the MyPaint devs.
