Technically no, but the plod are actually encouraged not to report out of date tax till it is 3 months overdue, they certainly won't within the first month.
I've gone before to the last day of the month in which I needed to get it to be started from the 1st day of that month, plod don't want the paperwork anyway.

heres from the tax website.the cossie is ok!
If you use the electronic vehicle licensing service or tax by post at the end of the month, there’s now an exemption for not displaying a tax disc. This exemption covers the first five working days of the month to allow time for the new disc to arrive in the post. While you are still waiting for your tax disc you will need to display your current tax disc. The exemption only applies if applications are made before the current tax disc or SORN expires.

It gets noted as untaxed immediately but dvla are not the quickest people around, took them 11 months to note my gf's car as taxed on the system, 2 weeks before it was renewed for another 12 months.
