No, it would seem as though she was unaware that the execution was even taking place. Elizabeth was a very wishy-washy person, and after much pressuring from her advisers, she finally allowed the execution of Mary to take place. Her advisers were aware of how quickly she could change her mind, and instantly put her execution in motion. Elizabeth finally found out about her cousin's death when she heard the tolling of the bells that signaled that an exectuction had taken place. Ironically, she was greatly sadden and depressed afterwards because of Mary's death.
