Short answer: No.


Long answer: For Fedora's project site: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/

Fedora Core is an operating system and platform, based on Linux, that is
always free for anyone to use, modify and distribute, now and forever.
It is developed by a large community of people who strive to provide and
maintain the very best in free, open source software and standards.
Fedora Core is part of the Fedora Project, sponsored by Red Hat, Inc.

Opera is a proprietary closed source software and as a result, it cannot
be accepted into Fedora Core / Extra. (Even if you can download the
Opera binary for free)
