No, and there is a reason why:

Whenever you want several commands being executed in a transaction,
start the transaction yourself, using BEGIN or START TRANSACTION. If you
want transactions, you probably also want to set the isolation level,
which defaults to READ COMMITTED, even though the SQL standard would
prefer SERIALIZABLE.
