Hi gBay.

They are indeed! For example:

<p><map name="mymap" id="mymap">
<area shape="rect" coords="50,50,50,50" href="link.html" alt="Alt Text" />
</map>
<img src="path/to/image.gif" usemap="#mymap" ismap="ismap" alt="Alt Text" /></p>

they are valid in xhtml 1 strict. however in xhtml 1.1 they are not.
