Not strictly speaking. Warning, what follows is pure speculation about possibilities which may have little to no relation to how a computational multiverse would actually work. It could be possible that there are three computable universes A, B & C, such that the beings in A run a simulation of B appearing as gods to the intelligences therein, the beings in B do the same with C, and finally the beings in C do the same with A. It would probably be very hard to recognize such a structure if you were in it because of the enormous slowdowns in the simulation inside your simulation. Though it might have a comparatively short description as the solution to a an equation relating a number of universes cyclically.
In case that wasn’t clear I imagine these universes to have a common quite high-level specification, with minds being primitive objects and so on. I don’t think this would work at all if the universes had physics similar to our own; needing planets to form from elementary particles and evolution to run on these planets to get any minds at all, not speaking of computational capabilities of simulating similar universes.

...congratulations. I thought time travel would be a neccesity, I certainly didn’t expect that intuition to be disproved so quickly.
It may be speculative, but I don’t see any glaring reason to disprove your hypothesised structure.
