No, the technical zone of the boundary for all boundary lines on the field (goal line and sidlelines) are defined as the interior edge. So one micron of the ball over the white paint of the goalline is a TD, and one micron of a shoe on (remeber you're not out of bounds until you touch) the white paint of the sideline is out of bounds.

And, not to confuse you further, but the end line at the back of the end zone is treated like a sideline, i.e., any part of it is considered out of bounds.
