Looking at its natural distribution (Mediterranean coasts), I would suspect not.

This reference talks about its hardiness

Unfortunately it says it's often killed if temps reach -10 degrees C, which would put it around zone 8b/9a.

Hi Ecrane,

Defoliation at -5° and death at -10° would put it solidly in zone 9, realistically zone 9b.
