Not exactly.  The variable is defined in dired.el, and so is not defined
in Emacs until this file is actually loaded, e.g. by means of (require
'dired) or by using an autoloaded command (e.g. M-x dired, aka C-x d).
You may try putting (require 'dired) in your init.el (or just saying M-:
(require 'dired)) - the variable will be there for you to customize
without starting dired even once.

Best,
