No, because of prequisite, requisite and ifreq service. You really do
want to RECEIVE the whole thing. Right before you start installing the
service, download and RECEIVE the latest HOLDDATA.
Note that you can be selective about what service you actually APPLY,
but you want all of it on the PTS in case a newer PTF is required to
resolve an error.
