of course not. why should it be?
it is however a valid character for certain purposes. Basically IRC has
used \001 for CTCPs, like this (variants exist)
:src PRIVMSG dest :\001TOKEN payload1 payload2\001
a CTCP reply replaces PRIVMSG with NOTICE
IRC clients use \002 for a colour prefix, like this: \002<fg>,<bg>
There is also underline and reverse, but I don't remember what those
codes are.
and don't try to parse IRC with XML parsers... it's nothing similar.
