I'm guessing not, based on 3.1.4:

Points are awarded once per CYCLE for BALLS SCORED by ROBOTS in the GOALS, BALLS SCORED by ROBOTS over the TRUSS, and for each ROBOT CATCH. Additional points are credited to an ALLIANCE upon each GOAL based on the number of ASSISTS earned by the ALLIANCE for that CYCLE.

The CYCLE doesn't start until after all the BALLS from AUTO have been SCORED. (3.1.2)
