No it does not keep that information. But the XPathDocument does.
XPathDocument doc = new XPathDocument("..\\..\\dataset1.xsd");
XPathNavigator nav = doc.CreateNavigator();
XPathNodeIterator iter = nav.Select("*");
if (iter.MoveNext()){
XPathNavigator root = iter.Current;
IXmlLineInfo info = root as IXmlLineInfo;
Console.WriteLine(info.LineNumber +"," + info.LinePosition);
}
