No, it is not. The sear normally holds the striker back when the weapon is cocked. Something is keeping the sear from doing that. Could be wear, damage or dirt on the striker, the sear, or some part of the trigger is putting pressure on the sear, causing it to be out of position. If a cleaning of the action and bolt, and light lubrication does not fix this, DO NOT LOAD THE RIFLE. It may fire as you close the bolt. Get it to a gunsmith post haste.
