Yes they can be persisted, see the last line
This example is simply cut and pasted from the unit tests to give you
an idea of how to manipulate pages

find the Page Manager on SiteViewController initialization");
throw new RuntimeException(pe);

actionResponse) throws PortletException, java.io.IOException
