Not the same runtime, but iirc parsing,etc is done at an earlier stage in Hermes/RN so some parts of the initialization process is already done in that way if I'm not mistaken.
Isn‘t that kind of the idea of Hermes?
I think all the sources are pre-parsed and compiled but it's not an outright snapshot as in nothing is executed ahead of time.
