No, they have a set range of models each year that vary but they do also make special runs for dealers to their own specs and will also make one offs to a customers spec drawn up from the custom design guide.
Check out the Custom Shop website:

Aren't the Custom Shop Strats sold at Guitar Guitar ones they've specced themselves and aren't available at other retailers, same with Andertons etc.?
For nearly 5 grand it should

Part 2 - Fender will offer select Special Limited Runs from time to time - Generally via the NAMM show - Again the dealer will place an order and wait around 6 months for stock to arrive - Again we buy what Fender have spec'd - Such listings are very rarely listed on the Fender web site - There may well me 100 or so different models and colours offered as part of the NAMM Limited Run - Some are a Limited Run based on 1 of 10 or 1 of 100 etc - Others are part of a limited run, with an order book that is only available for the period of the show - As such maybe only 1 built or 55, depending on how many dealers order that exact model
Part 3 - Any Custom Shop dealer, be it me, GuitarGuitar, Coda, Peach etc, will order their 'own creations' - We spec them and order them and wait around 6 months for stock to arrive - Most stock is based on this link http://www.fmicassets.com/sites/fender.com/themes/img/customshop/2018/2018_Custom_Shop_Design_Guide.pdf - Therefore we all have similar stock yet all different - For example I order a 63 Strat in fiesta red, Doug at Coda orders a 64 version in LP Blue - So more individuality about what each dealer has in stock
Part 4 - Similar to part 3 - But you as a customer can create your own CS model - Again around 6 months delivery - See above link again for a guide line of options
Note - Fender no longer carry any stock in any warehouse be it the UK, USA or EU - All stock is now built to order
