Well, no it isn't. From RFC1738:

 host
        The fully qualified domain name of a network host, or its IP
        address as a set of four decimal digit groups separated by
        ".". [snipped]

  As you can see, the decimal represenation of IP addresses is not valid in
a URL according to the RFC.
