No.

Contrast with:

Not unless you make specific arrangements with them, and they provide 
you with a /24 or larger.  You can't announce anything smaller then a 
/24 to the general public internet as pretty much everyone filters out 
announcements smaller then that.

A direct allocation depends on what context...

A direct allocation from ARIN can be a direct assignment of IP space 
from ARIN for an end user (for example, I have a legacy allocation from 
ARIN that I use with an AS number provided by ARIN, and that I can use 
with any provider that supports BGP announcements).

Not to sound...  mean or condescending, but you _are_ on a network 
operations mailing list.  One might ask, why are you on NANOG if you do 
not understand things which even a jr network PFY would have to know to 
get a job in this field?
