Could be but it better to do checks before commending it. Find the electric PTO connector and disconnect it. Now with the ignition on, engine not running, pull the PTO switch on. Using either a volt meter or test light check that there is voltage acroos the two wire of the PTO connector. If 12v (your battery voltage) is there then the PTO clutch itself is bad. If no voltage then switch needs checking to if it has in and out. Voltage in and none out means bad switch. If no voltage in then you need to check the ignition switch.

No it is at the electric PTO Clutch itself. The connector at the switch is the switch itself.
In you case it connected to the pigtail in the following picture.
