No; you have to do something like the following:
[kernel-]toolchain buildworld buildkernel.
A plus side of doing this is that I do kernel-toolchain at -j12
and then do buildworld buildkernel at -j12 as well. It's much quicker
than buildworld buildkernel at -j1, and less error prone than doing it
at any other -j value in parallel.
The handbook just says buildworld buildkernel (
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/makeworld.html ), and UPDATING
just says kernel-toolchain buildkernel installkernel (look for "To
build a kernel"), but there aren't any official directions in the
quick to find spots that mention those above steps.
Cheers,
