Yes, that’s explicitly what that is. Dark matter/energy is just the name given to the phenomenon that measurements suggest there must be something else we can’t detect yet
Or maybe we can detect that nothing is there and the formulas are just wrong. But it’s a lot easier to make up invisible matter than rework the formulas.
I feel like this is why physicists came up with dark matter/energy
