Yes, they are taught the same thing in Pakistani textbooks.
Pakistani textbooks controversy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Text Book of Pakistan Studies claims that "Pakistan came to be established for the first time when the Arabs under Mohammad bin Qasim occupied Sindh and Multan'; by the thirteenth century 'Pakistan had spread to include the whole of Northern India and Bengal' and then under the Khiljis, Pakistan moved further south-ward to include a greater part of Central India and the Deccan'. [...] The spirit of Pakistan asserted itself', and under Aurangzeb the 'Pakistan spirit gathered in strength'; his death 'weakened the Pakistan spirit'."
It a part of propaganda campaign i know but i will tell the truth today.
The paragraph is taken from a Pakistani book but it is actually cherry picking. The full explanation is here.
There is a chapter named as "ideology of pakistan" in this chapter only ideology is discussed it tells about the ideological boundaries and existence of pakistan and not the physical. Considering arab muslims as different to local indians and declaring Mohammad bin qasim as the first Pakistani keep in mind this chapter is just saying that these people cleared the path of creating Pakistan and nothing else.
