No, they are not.  You misunderstand what titles are.
What Lynx regards as the title usually comes from the
contents of the <TITLE> element.  The title of a document
to which there is a link therefore usually comes from within
the contents of the referred-to documents, not from the contents
of the referring document.  Therefore it is not available
unless the referred-to document has been already loaded.

I don't know why you think that was the reason; I wouldn't
assume that.
