No.

You must code the release of all of the resources your
program has used.  In fact, if you're programs does
not release these resources, some types of resources
will not get free'd even after your program terminates.

Specifically, watch out for graphics contexts.

Pretty much the opposite of virtual memory garbage
collection.
