No, the SSP1_DATA3 pin is not used for any boot purpose on the i.MX28 EVK board. However, lease note that it is used as the Power Enable GPIO signal for the Ethernet PHYs on the EVK board. So, be aware of possible conflict between Ethernet and ADC operation if using this pin for the ADC interface.
Have a great day,
Artur
