Yes I am certain.

Try it in a (high energy) go-around where ALT* will engage before Thrust reduction to CLB. You will find the Airbus sliding back on its tail struggling with the geometry of the altitude capture because of the thrust reduction after ALT*. Pulling the ALT again will force a re-computation.
