No, it's not. The components that have so far been upgraded were
upgraded entirely automatically. The dependencies within the GNOME 2
packages are simply not strict enough to prevent (say) gnome-panel being
installed into testing with an older gnome-control-center (and it's
possible that they can't be, which is why releases aren't automatic
either ...).
