Rashi, from Shabbos 113b: No. "Ten l'Chacham v'Yechkam Od" (Mishlei 9:9) - Na'ami told Rus to bathe, anoint, put on her Shabbos clothing and go to the granary. Rus went to the granary first 1 [lest people see her adorned and suspect that she is a harlot].

Rashi (113b), Malbim: In the granary, she anointed and changed clothing. (Surely, she bathed beforehand, especially if it refers to conversion - refer to 3:3:1:1*. -PF)
