747 nose cone

Hi all

This may sound like a very stupid question but here goes...
I know that some passenger aircraft are fitted with the ability of being able to take out the seats and for the aircraft to be then used as a cargo liner. So this got me thinking about the 747. On the 747's that were built for cargo companies the nose can be used as a loading point (the nose cone raises like a trapdoor).
So my question is....Are the passenger configured 747s fitted with the capability of raising the nose cone?

Sorry if this sounds ridiculous!

Thanks in advance
