No.Limberger responds:
Since dementors were intended to guard Azkaban and not leave from there,
it's
possible that teaching the Patronus charm wasn't regarded as a necessary
DADA
spell to teach at Hogwarts. So it's possible that defensive spells intended
to be used
against dementors may not have been taught at all.
