I can't find a catagorical answer for you. But, here's what Airbus says about it.
If a RA is generated:
. The flight crew must always follow the TCAS RA orders in the correct
direction, even:
-- If they contradict the ATC instructions
-- At the maximum ceiling altitude with CLIMB, CLIMB or INCREASE CLIMB,
The PF will avoid excessive maneuvers, and keep the Vertical Speed outside
the red area of the VSI and within the green area. If necessary, the PF must
use the full speed range between Valpha max and Vmax.
