No. Apparently they "chose" to give us the sneak peak as a "thank you" for the pre-order instead of a grace period. According to Gaile, the GW engine can't do both.

edit: found the quote I was looking for.

That quote was in response to people asking about a grace period to lessen the load on the store servers at 12:01 on Friday morning.
