    Soybeans do contain some carbohydrate "Together, protein and soybean oil content account for 56% of dry soybeans by weight (36% protein and 20% fat, table). The remainder consists of 30% carbohydrate" (source link). It doesn't appear linseed/flax seed has carb content. 

    .

    Depending on the other ingredients in your 'bread' the carb content could increase. Whether or not to consider it a 'carb' due to the content in just the soy, I'd say no. It HAS carbs but isn't primarily a carb.
