I don't think so:
>>> class A(object):
... def __enter__(self): return self
... def __exit__(self, *args): print args
...
>>> with A() as a:
... a.x
...
(<type 'exceptions.AttributeError'>, AttributeError("'A' object has no
attribute 'x'",), <traceback object at 0x7f57b70f22d8>)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 2, in <module>
AttributeError: 'A' object has no attribute 'x'
