No, it is
<http://example.org/SomeBook> <http://purl.org/dc/terms/creator>
"http://example.org/somePerson"^^<http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Person>

If @type is used in the context it refers to the datatype. It is an
overloaded keyword whose interpretation depends on where you use it. If use
in the context or in a @value-object, it specifies the data data, if used in
a node object it is a shorthand for rdf:type.
The easiest way to get answers to questions like these is to use the
playground:
