Not in this context it is not. In list context if one of the param values is undef CGI.pm will return an empty list, and thus we get a 7 not 8 member list passed and so the bind error:

@ary = ( (), ('val'),('val'),('val'),('val'),('val'),('val'),('val') )
+;
print scalar @ary;
__DATA__

Thus as I suggested defining the values or setting undef ones to 'NULL' will work fine.
