No.

By default (eg: when generate_node_acls=0) all initiators are denied
access to individual TargetName+TargetPortalGroupTag endpoints until an
explicit NodeACL based on InitiatorName is added by the target
administrator.

So while when discovery authentication is disabled, any initiator can
obtain the list of targets through sendtargets discovery, but default,
they are *not* allowed to login to any target endpoint without an
explicit NodeACL, nor without per NodeACL CHAP authentication
credentials.
