No. While in FIBA there is team control during a throw-in, the direction of the alternate possession arrow is first established when there is team control of the ball
in bounds as per FIBA rule 12.4.3:
12.4.3 The team that does not gain control of the live ball on the playing court after the jump ball which began the first period will start the alternating possession.
So in that case the arrow direction is not established until the throw-in is made and some player establishes control in bounds. Notice that the same wording is used for starting the 24 seconds count:
50.1 [The 24 seconds device shall be] Started or restarted whenever a team gains control of a live ball on the playing court.
