Yes.

A, B, and C are classes, not resources. The resources they contain are not
guaranteed to be applied before Someresource['baz'], but if there were any
resources declared directly by class Bar then they would all be applied
before Someresource['baz'].
Do not use run stages for this. They are way overkill for the problem. If
you needed to add new stages every time you had to enforce resource
ordering then you would quickly end up with an unmanageable mess.
See my response to your other thread on this question
(https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/puppet-users/buREmDC8Py4)
for more information. In the future, it will suffice to ask your question
once.
