no, the players need to be in the wing areas at the time of the whistle. 1.2.5 defines the wing area in part by saying "The areas between these line segments[, the wing area lines,] and the sidelines and confined within the extremites of those line segments shall be designated as wing area."
I take it when it says "confined within the extrmenites" to mean that the wing areas are bound by the fixed length of the wing area lines.
