Don’t think so. Not mentioned in the guidance.
Please refer to the official guidance:

What qualification or test did you use when applying for ILR? You can just reuse the same.

Note that the requirement for an academic proof of English language is that it is a degree. You may want to check with the issuing authority as to whether the MRCGP is a degree.

Even if it is a post-graduate certificate or diploma, it is unlikely to be accepted. It must be a degree that one has completed to qualify as proof of meeting the English language requirement.

Did you use it for a past immigration application? If not you need to take SELT B1.

It asks for any immigration application. All visas (excluding tourist visas) up to ILR. Naturalisation is not an immigration application.
