Hi,

No, IMHO, Strict Mode was implemented from MySQL 5.0

-- from doc:
As of MySQL as of 5.7.4 this mode is deprecated. For previous version you must comment out the respective line in the config file. Refer MySQL 5.7 documentation on NO_ZERO_DATE

You can comment NO_ZERO_DATE in mysql config file, but in next versions not will be possibly.
