Nah, people who make this argument say that if the constants were a little different, life wouldn't have developed. So god managed to fine tune it to the exact right place.
Clearly God is constrained by some other factor in this instance, if he can't just make life work under any circumstances he wants. He's having to find ways around these arbitrary obstacles that appeared out of nowhere. He solved the puzzle, rather than actually making the rules in the first place.
If God could have made it work under any circumstances, the whole argument is bogus. No fine tuning was needed in the first place.
