That would be a lot of research to verify that but yes, I would say so.

A lot of plant seeds have a built in mechanism to keep them from germinating at inopportune times. These seeds will grow if freshly harvested seed is planted and the conditions are right. But if they don't immediately germinate, will go dormant. It takes some sort of act on our part to break the dormancy.

For Alpine plants, that's most likely cold, moist stratification. Sow these seeds in the fall or expect to stratify in your refrigerator for the winter.
