No, you're not.  Try, for example, "ls /dev/null".  See the User's Guide:
<http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-specialnames.html#AEN825>.

/dev/std{in,out,err} are bash artifacts.  I'm guessing you're using
/bin/sh, which on Cygwin is not the same as /bin/bash (see
<http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#CYNUX>).  Either use bash, or use the
standard bourne shell syntax, e.g., <&0, >&1 and >&2.  See also
<http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-03/msg00643.html>.
