Generally? No – usually they are doing this first. Sometimes they see an animatic or a Storyboard. They usually have directors to tell them what to do instead. Sometimes they record them together with other characters to make it more authentic. But other times they record their lines separately – for better and for worse.
Sometimes with dubs, they do get to see what they’re recording their lines to – but that’s cause the original work was done. I also emphasize the word “Sometimes” here – because there are occasions in which dubs are recorded alongside the original – you see this with say, Final Fantasy XIV.
So tldr, yes and no.
