Not really:

Sequence of Events

The following sequence of events takes place when a turn is being run:

All orders except for renaming and upgrading orders (C, G, N and T)
  are executed.
C, G, N and T orders are executed.  <---- This is not "last"
Hostile ships fight each other.
Ships bomb enemy planets.
Cargo is loaded onto ships at the beginning of routes, and the ships
  are sent into hyperspace.
Ships are sent on intercept orders.
Ships move through hyperspace.
Hostile ships fight each other again (new battles might be possible
  after ships emerge from hyperspace).
Ships bomb enemy planets again.
Production takes place.
Cargo is unloaded at the end of routes.
Identical groups are merged.
