No - at least not Harborside or Lagunamar

Lagunamar goes have some separate event fixed week 51 and 52 inventory. As discussed in another thread half of phase 1 and all of phase 2 are event weeks 51 and 52, meaning you have to own it to book it.

I believe all the ski resorts have 51/52 as a fixed week. Riverside definitely does.

But SDO/WKV it is floating, and I think that's true at WDW/WMH as well. Vistana villages in Orlando also has week 52 float, as well as at least some phases of Vistana resort.

[Redacted, because this is the Vistana Forum and the OP is asking about Vistana Resorts.]

Easy to book weeks 51 and 52 at WKV and WDW. Probably cause there’s not much to do during that time in the desert. Too cold to enjoy the pools.

I think how platinum season is set up might also be a factor. I think this resorts are all 1-21, 51,52. If you own a plat week and wait for 52, you'll be too late to book anything good (or possibly anything at all) if you don't get it. Seems a bit risky, especially for those without staroptions (WMH/WDW resale owners )
