The solution presented in the question does not meet the stated goal of preventing guest users in the tenant from using cameras during Microsoft Teams meetings.

Modifying the external collaboration settings in the Azure Active Directory admin center can control the external collaboration settings for guest users in the tenant, but it does not have any direct impact on the Teams meeting settings for guests.

To prevent guest users from using cameras during Microsoft Teams meetings, you need to modify the Teams meeting settings. This can be done in the Teams admin center or in the Microsoft Teams PowerShell module by using the Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy cmdlet to modify the Teams meeting policy for guest users.

You can modify the Teams meeting policy by setting the AllowUserOverride parameter to $False for the AllowMeetNow, AllowPrivateMeetNow, and AllowChannelMeetNow properties. This will prevent guests from using cameras during meetings.

Therefore, the correct answer to the question is B. No, the solution presented in the question does not meet the stated goal.
