It's not.  Let's take an example, AMS-IX: 
https://www.peeringdb.com/private/exchange_view.php?id=26
That record doesn't say AS1200 anywhere.  You'll have to search for 
"Amsterdam Internet Exchange" to find AS1200; a search for "AMS-IX" 
will lead you only to its route server ASN.  There is no way to filter 
participants by IXP as "Network Type" doesn't offer that option.

Euro-IX will give you most serious IXPs globally.  For example, 
https://www.euro-ix.net/ixps/2-AMS-IX#network is AMS-IX's entry 
and it lists all pertinent information.
