No — the Wein bridge feedback network gives phase shift at the oscillation frequency.
A Wein bridge oscillator uses a non-inverting amplifier, which itself contributes phase shift. For the total loop shift to be (the phase condition for oscillation), the feedback bridge network must also contribute no phase shift. This happens exactly at the balance (resonant) frequency , where the phase angle of the RC network is zer …
