No- look at 210.8 for gfci requirements.
Ok. So, going with the "within 6ft. of the outside edge of sink"?
Knew this was coming
It depends in large part of the definition of "within 6ft of outside edge of sink." To me a straight 6 foot line makes zero sense in this case- an appliance plugged in under the sink cannot punch thru the countertop and fall in the sink, but if the cord is long enough it may exit thru the cabinet and be dropped in to the sink.
Still, it is not specifically required by the NEC that a disposal be on gfci. AHJ or manufacturer may say otherwise.
