Yes, as well as many other pins, but they are so "weak" pullups that we can't really trusted them.
Even Espressif don't trusted them as mentioned in 0B-ESP8266__Hardware_User_Guide__EN_v1.1.pdf, here is what they say about CH_PD which has also an internal pullup :
There is an internal pull-up in the CHIP_EN pin, so no external pull-up is needed.

The enable pin CH_EN (pin 7) can also serve as a reset pin. If voltage for CH_EN pin is low, the chipset ESP8266EX will power off. Note that this pin cannot be dangled.
