No.  From the HTML 4.01 spec:

        Element names are written in uppercase letters (e.g., BODY).
        Attribute names are written in lowercase letters (e.g., lang,
        onsubmit).  Recall that in HTML, element and attribute names are
        case-insensitive; the convention is meant to encourage
        readability.
