No, it's not. Otherwise, it would not be possible to fulfill the
conditions of forcing retreat, i.e., the attacker must not have
received any hits that turn.

As a matter of fact, all actions are done first (step 4 of sequence
of play in Melee), then force retreats are done after (step 5 of
sequence of play in Melee).
