No.  Even though dict is ordered, no guarantee about ordering of "dictionary".  
Glossary says:

  dictionary
  An associative array, where arbitrary keys are mapped to values. The keys can 
be any object with __hash__() and __eq__() methods. Called a hash in Perl.

So there can be dict-like object without preserving insertion order.
