No. Each job will have to explicitly select the credentials to use.

You can, e.g. using the Folders plugin, create credentials that are scoped
to a specific folder. In which case only the jobs within that folder will
have access to those credentials.

I view this as a good thing - as credential leaking is prevented... but
others may view as a bad thing.

I am currently looking at how to achieve this. My current thinking is that
you would have an advanced option that allowed you to provide additional
credentials for specific realms at the job level.... so that you get to
control how the externals' credentials are selected and supplied... the
down side is that would be more complex for those cases... and you would
have to replicate for each job that checks out that repo
