Yes and no.
Season 1-3 Modules
These adventures are no longer available for free. Anyone desiring to obtain these adventures must purchase them on the DMsGuild. Anyone who already owns a copy of these adventures is not required to purchase the adventures again (the free copies are theirs to keep), however they may wish to do so anyway - as only the copies on the DMsGuild will be updated with errata and corrections.
Season 4 Modules
As with previous seasons, stores are now being provided passwords for the season 4 adventures. Stores can then download and print these adventures for use in their store, but they are not authorized to give the pdf files or password to DMs. It is also recommended for stores to only provide physical copies of these adventures for use in the store but this isn't a requirement. If you want the pdf file, you will need to buy the adventure(s) yourself.
After season 4 however, mod authors will be paid exclusively via DMsGuild. As such, stores will no longer be provided free copies of these adventures.
Death House
Death House is available for free on Dragon+. It is also available as an in-store Launch Event at participating stores. Stores running DH as a Launch Event have certificates for three magic items from this adventure (two of these items are exclusive to stores, and cannot be obtained by running the dragon+ or hardcover version of the adventure).
Death House is also included as Appendix B in the Curse of Strahd adventure.
