J_T, in theory the assumed temp / Flex temp will produce thrust and speeds figures for a BFL on that runway. However in reality due to the difference in actual temperature and the assumed/flex temp, it wont be balanced.

To answer the original question, YES. If you are using a FMS for performance calculations it will always be balanced, however as soon as you apply any corrections it will no longer be balanced.
