Yes it is. The header on the cached object only gets removed on delivery 
to a client.
Squid does not comply with the Cookie specifications in this regard.

With the extra wrinkle that the mandatory revalidation on these objects 
may provide a new Set-Cookie header that gets added for delivery to the 
new client after the old/cached header was removed. So you may still see 
Set-Cookie on the revalidated HIT (aka REFRESH_UNMODIFIED). Adding a new 
Set-Cookie is usually the purpose of the revalidation being required on 
these sort of objects.
