No, it's not correct.

The inner multicol is preceded by a soft column break, so the top margin
is dropped.

http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/page.html#allowed-page-breaks

   "When an unforced page break occurs here, the used values of the
    relevant 'margin-top' and 'margin-bottom' properties are set to
    '0'."
