No.  The content model of the BODY element is declared as:

  <!ELEMENT BODY O O (%block;|SCRIPT)+ +(INS|DEL) -- document body -->

The preceding "+" denotes an SGML feature called "inclusion", which
means INS and DEL can appear *anywhere* under the BODY element.
For details, please refer to the SGML standard.
