no, it depends on whether your palms are facing you or facing away. toward you is mostly arms with some back. facing away from you is more back and forearm than bicep. unfortunately, any back exercise you do is going to bring your arm into play. that's why i would work biceps and forearms first to get them tired and less involved in back motions. same thing with pushing motions like bench press - i would work the triceps first to get them tired and less involved in the pushing movement.
