No you can’t. Decimal accepts strings that aren’t valid as JSON numbers, like
`.3`,
That's not a problem as long as it doesn't serialise them that
way, which it wouldn't:

'0.3'

The serialiser could raise an exception in that case.
BTW, I just checked what it does with floats:
>>> json.dumps(float('nan'))
'NaN'
So it seems that it currently doesn't care about strict conformance
here.
