I would say no because the Coach has to request it first or A-1 has to leave the game. It sounds like the ref is just calling one to allow the player to stay in the game.
When the coach says he wants to leave the player in the game, that's taken as a request for a TO. In hs ball, if the coach says, "I want him to stay in the game" I'll say, "Then you have to take a TO." That gives the coach the choice. I wouldn't just assume the coach is asking for it.
