They are, at least in the current Git version.  When I do

  C-c C-e document RET amsart RET RET

to create this minimal document

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\documentclass{amsart}

\begin{document}

\end{document}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

then the value of `TeX-active-styles' is

  ("amsart10" "amsthm" "amsopn" "amsbsy" "amstext" "amsmath"
   "amsart" "latex2e" "amsarttest" "NoVirtexSymbols")

So amsmath and several other AMS styles have automatically been loaded.
