No.
The ball is still "in" the frontcourt until it touches something/someone in the backcourt. So the person who catches the ball in the backcourt is - technically and in opposition to all established laws of physics and logic - the last person to touch. Because the ball still had frontcourt status.
Like others have said, I don't like the interpretation, and I think it is the wrong ruling...but I call it the way my State tells me to call it.
