No. The & and | operators work element-by-element for matrices. Your
0x4 and 0x8 numbers are just scalars, so the result is 1, which tells
you that both elements in the comparison are nonzero. If you want
bit-wise operations, you need some functions to do it. The matcompat
package may have some, but they aren't distributed as a part of Octave
(yet).
