Essentially, yes, though only for USC and DB personal fouls.

Here is the actual rule reference:

10-1-5

ARTICLE 5. Penalties for dead-ball fouls are administered separately and in
order of occurrence (A.R. 10-1-5-I-VI) [Exception: When unsportsmanlike
or dead-ball personal fouls by both teams are reported to the referee and
before any of the penalties have been completed, the fouls offset, the
number or type of down established before the fouls occurred is unaffected,
and the penalties are canceled, except that any disqualified player must
leave the game (Rules 5-2-6 and 10-2-2-a)].
