No, mean altitude is exactly the height you would get if you keep the total volume of land above MSL constant but morph its topology into a flat plateau of uniform height.
The continents overall are not quite as low lying as might seem from coastal cities. Mountains, highlands and plateaus represent a sizeable portion of the continental surface. The mean height of land on earth is about at the level of Tucson, Az. Tibetan plateau proper alone adds 200 feet to the average height of all land on earth.
