Yes. The only immediate correctness constraint needed in ES6 and the immediate DOM timeframe is the "empty stack" requirement
Stated at < https://github.com/domenic/promises-unwrapping#coercethenablethenable-then> as "4. Assert: the execution context stack is empty." Stated at <https://github.com/promises-aplus/promises-spec#the-then-method> as "4. onFulfilled or onRejected must not be called until the execution context stack contains only platform code. [3.1]." citing <https://github.com/promises-aplus/promises-spec#notes> stating: '1. Here "platform code" means engine, environment, and promise implementation code. In practice, this requirement ensures that onFulfilled and onRejected execute asynchronously, after the event loop turn in which then is called, and with a fresh stack. This can be implemented with either a "macro-task" mechanism such as setTimeout or setImmediate, or with a "micro-task" mechanism such as MutationObserver or process.nextTick. Since the promise implementation is considered platform code, it may itself contain a task-scheduling queue or "trampoline" in which the handlers are called.' Some of the underlying issues this addresses are explained at the < https://github.com/promises-aplus/promises-spec/issues/139> thread and the previous issue threads it cites.
