Personally, I think it is reasonable to assume this. Why? Primarily 
because, IIRC, Quirrel very nervously shakes Harry's hand. If 
Voldemort had been inside Quirrel at that time, he would have been 
unable to touch Harry's hand. >>>



That is a good point, actually. Thanks for the remark. Also, i
noticed that in the movie he does not shake Harry's hand, and he is
wearing the turban, i wonder why they couldn't be a bit more faithful
instead of messing up in silly things like that.
But indeed, i got the impression in this reading that the sharing of
the body didn't happen until Quirrel made the mistake of not getting
the stone. Also, i wonder what kind of punishment Voldemort gave
Quirrel when Harry heard them in the empty classroom (and he thought
Snape was there too, wrongly).
