Yes, fruits. But not vegetables overall. Animal skin has vitamin C. So it's possible to acquire it with a meat diet depending on what you eat.
Of course you can fill this gap with citrus fruits. C it's not a big problem nowadays since there are fruits easily available. Historically tribes that lived in ICU areas had to eat the animal skin and organs to have enough vitamins. Maybe that part was too specific and unnecessary
I listed multiple vegetables there? There's plenty more too like brussel sprouts, kale, parsley. Many are actually even higher than citrus like brocoli
In practice, people are only really getting it from plants. Technically possible doesn't mean that's actually what happens
