No they aren't.  From 3.6.2:

"It is implementation-defined whether or not the
dynamic initialization (8.5, 9.4, 12.1, 12.6.2)
of an object of namespace scope is done before
the first statement of main. If the initialization
is deferred to some point in time after the first
statement of main, it shall occur before the first
use of any function or object defined in the same
translation unit as the object to be initialized."
