When you say ecliptic I assume you mean along the equator or latitude lines. Yes and no. While we know that gas giant's often form moons in this area, we have a perfect example in Uranus that shows in exo-solar systems gas giants may also form moons in other locations. In Uranus it's probably closer to the prime meridian or longitudinal lines.
