No, it isn't. At that point, the beat (according to the notation in the score) is dotted eighth = (some number). How is it any different than quarter note = (same number) and making the notes triplet eighths?

I'll post an example from the score when I get home tonight.

EDIT: I'll correct myself... it wouldn't be 2/4 and 5/8, it would be 6/8 and 7/8 - played at dotted quarter = (some number).
That's what I get for posting from work and relying on my aging memory
