No. We have to two reasons why this is not the case.
1) Open u-boot/arch/arm/cpu/arm920t/start.S:328
cpu_init_crit
......
line 346
    /*
     * before relocating, we have to setup RAM timing
     * because memory timing is board-dependend, you will
     * find a lowlevel_init.S in your board directory.
     */
2) NAND controller must be initialized before C code run.
