2. When on fourth down, before a change of team possession, a Team
A fumble is recovered in advance of the fumble by a Team A player
other than the fumbler, the ball is dead and returned to the spot of the
fumble. If the fumble is recovered behind the spot of the fumble by a
Team A player other than the Team A fumbler, the ball is dead at that
spot.

In texas NCAA and HS yes it is a rule.
