I don't think so. Execution of scripts without shebang is considered
legacy. Quoting <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shebang_(Unix)> :

  "Note that, even in systems with full kernel support for the #! magic number,
   some scripts lacking interpreter directives (although usually still
   requiring execute permission) are still runnable by virtue of the legacy
   script handling of the Bourne shell, still present in many of its modern
   descendants. Scripts are then interpreted by the user's default shell."
