No.
MIDP gives a Java based interface, architecture, and library, for high level programming of the phone. It does not say anything about the physical capabilities of the underlying system. Technically, the device you’re programming against is not even guaranteed to be a phone – any device could decide to implement the MIDP, as long as it has any kind of two-way, wireless, possibly intermittent, network connection.

The suggested hardware requirements for devices are on pages 7-8. Note the use of the word “SHOULD” – devices might not actually have all or even any of these properties.
