Not necessarily. When meat/poultry/fish is frozen, it’s done at extremely low temperatures to keep the ice crystals as small as possible and maintain the protein’s integrity when defrosted. That’s why it’s not recommended to freeze your own fresh-bought meat, or even to refreeze it after defrosting. Putting Han in carbonite took just a few seconds, so his flesh might have been preserved quite well. Using it as a method for full cryostasis may be another question entirely.
