No - he thinks she's his grandma. As far as everyone knows, she's his grandma. (Do you think Tomiko goes around telling her real age to everyone? Well, I don't remember if it's mentioned if those "in the know" know her real age/position.) She's just a very distant grandma - even in ep 11 Satoru started out saying "grandmother" and then amended it to "Asahina Tomiko-san", and later on in the book he calls her Tomiko-san.
