No...BMW moved away from individual fuses and relays for the exterior lighting way back in the mid 1990s. It started with the LM (lamp module)...the next iteration was the LCM, then the LCM III & IV. Then when the new generation BMWs started to roll out (e90/e65/e66/e60/e70 - upward)...the control of lighting went to other modules...but BMW still stayed away from simple fuses controlling the external lights.
A3 = the light module in the e83:

Light functions
The light check control module controls and monitors
- all external vehicle headlights and lamps both when switched on and switched off (cold and warm monitoring)
- all switches and buttons for light functions
- The functions of the dimmer for the instrument lights and locator lights
Components
With the exception of the brake light switch, all switches scanned by the LCM are designed such that they switch to ground.
The following switches are scanned by the LCM:
- Combined switch for parking light/low beam
- Turn signal/dip switch
- Fog light switch
- Brake light switch
- Hazard warning push-button
- Dimmer potentiometer for instrument locator lights
The LCM receives further information via the I-bus/K-bus.
