Not quite - oxygen starts flowing when the mask is physically pulled downward by the passenger (removing a pin and igniting the oxygen generator).

I was on a short (domestic) leg where this happened; they just let the masks dangle there for the duration of the flight. I guess they didn't want to do the same for a 13-hour flight though.
