No, those are at ftp://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/linux/updates/enterprise/
in variious channels for various components. RedHat chose to separate
out various components, such as some virtualization and clustering
components, into separate "channels". CentOS, sensibly, merges them
back into a single repository.
This is partly why the contents between CentOS's merged installation
environment and RHEL's various "workstation", "client" "node"d my
uncle benjy" channels do not precisely match CentOS's or Scientific
Linux's or the older Whitebox setups.
The bare SRPM channels are available at:
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/
