Can possession in Spanish be formed by two nouns placed in juxtaposition?

I'm confused by this excerpt from *Historia de una gaviota y del gato que le enseñó a volar* by Luis Sepúlveda. It almost looks like an English possessive construction "the gaviotas' pilot": > Llevaban seis horas de vuelo sin interrupciones y, aunque **las gaviotas > piloto** las habían conducido por corrientes de aires cálidos que > hicieron placentero el planear sobre el océano, sentían la necesidad > de reponer fuerzas, y qué mejor para ello que un buen atracón de > arenques.
