No, otherwise they'd be `.tar.gz`, `.tar.lz`, etc... We don't compress them so that you can install them even from Emacsen that don't have access to a `.gz` decompressor. And yes, it would be nice to change this so that `elpa.gnu.org` could store the tarballs compressed and have Apache decompress them on the rare occasion where the client doesn't have a `.gz` decompressor. But I couldn't figure out how to convince Apache to do that (see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26895894/get-apache-to-auto-decompress-a-file-but-only-if-needed for what happened last time I tried).
