Not quite. You'd have to unpack the distribution, compile gcc while making sure that the linker doesn't search in it's default location(s) (usually /usr/lib), but in those of the distribution, while at the same time making sure that the paths for said libraries do not derivate from the running distribution. Also, it's advisable to compile gcc on a system running the same Kernel version as the distribution and is not optimized for an other architecture.
More information can be found on the Linux from Scratch homepage [0][1][2]

Besides, why do you want to use PLoP? As stated on the homepage, it's not really intended for new users but as a rescue disk. Other Live distributions are much more user-friendly, and most even come with a complete development chain.

[0] 5.5.*GCC-4.3.2 - Pass 1
[1] 5.12.*GCC-4.3.2 - Pass 2
[2] 6.14.*GCC-4.3.2

Edit: Quick question: did you even look at the homepage for PLoP? There's a whole entry on adding new software

freealut-config(1)					      General Commands Manual						freealut-config(1)

NAME
freealut-config - script to get information about the installed version of freealut SYNOPSIS
freealut-config [ --prefix= DIR] [ --exec-prefix= DIR] [ --version ] [ --libs ] [ --cflags ] DESCRIPTION
freealut-config is a tool that is used to configure and determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link progams, libraries, and plugins that use freealut. The use of freealut-config is deprecated. The more generic tool pkg-config should be used instead. OPTIONS
--cflags Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program or library that uses freealut. --exec-prefix=DIR If specified, use DIR instead of the installation exec prefix that freealut was build with when computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options. This option must be specified before any of the --cflags and --libs options. --libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a program or library that uses freealut. --prefix=DIR If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that freealut was built with when computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options. This option is also used for the exec prefix if --exec-prefix was not specified. This option must be specified before any of the --cflags and --libs options. --version Prints the currently installed version of freealut on standard output. EXAMPLES
gcc -o main.o $(freealut-config --cflags) -c main.c is how you might use freealut-config to compile a C source file for an executable program. gcc -o my_app $(freealut-config --libs) main.o util.o is how you might use freealut-config to link compiled objects into an executable program. SEE ALSO
pkg-config(1) This manual page was written for sdl-config by Branden Robinson, originally for Progeny Linux Systems, Inc., and the Debian Project. It was adapted to freealut by Sam Hocevar. freealut 2003-11-22 freealut-config(1)
