No - the club and 50th version both use the DTC helmet from Hasbro's catalog:

It's all supposition. There's no evidence Hasbro has access to the clubs tooling - or anything definitive that they don't. We just know they've never used anything created by the club.
The reference to 50th OB was due to Hasbro using the 25th OB head instead of the newer club one. the blub one was clearly superior, so it begs the question why Hasbro wouldn't use it if they could.
We know the TF Roadblock head was sculpted by Hasbro and was originally intended for an Amazon release. We don't know if the club paid for tooling or use of the head and has any proprietary right to it. FRIW, the Renegades RB vest / head that was also originally part of the Amazon set was later released by Hasbro as part of a SDCCC exclusive.
Perhaps, as was suggested, it doesn't matter and Hasbro just wanted to make a RB that was a bridge between their 1/18 and 1/12 scale releases.
I'm hoping Hasbro does have access and the rights to all the club tooling. It's exciting to think about the possibilities.
