Not really. The surfactants/detergents get removed during the rinse cycle. The concentrations are also relatively low. Dishwashers often have a "rinse only" cycle so if this is a concern for you, run one of those after the main cycle.

Running a second rinse cycle will still put you ahead so far as water consumption, because dishwashers use much less water than hand-washing.
