No.  But you can archive the DONE subtrees with C-c C-x C-a for
example.  See "Archiving" in Org's manual.

You might want to augment your function slightly with a call to
org-set-startup-visibility:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun set-visibility-to-folded-when-done()
  "Change default subtree VISIBILITY to folded when state is changed to DONE"
  (when (string= org-state "DONE")
    (org-set-property "VISIBILITY" "folded")
    (org-set-startup-visibility)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

That will fold the item immediately.

you can set a VISIBILITY property to folded in the DONE subtrees. then it
seems like those trees stay folded even if startup opens the rest of them.

If it is that important maybe you can get changing the status to also
change the visibility property with some emacs-lisp.
