It depends on whether the IPO involves an issue of additional common shares by the company. If so, then there's share dilution and of course you don't own 10% of the publicly traded shares.
I should also mention that most times, even if there is no additional issue of common shares, firms rarely offer 100% of the firm to public investors. So...the answer you will get is no.
