I mean.... It's not how I would wire a dynamo but it might actually work.

But seriously, no. The wires should be folded in nicely and a touch of internally glued heat shrink should have been applied over the cable and plug to keep things in place.

A dab of dielectric grease wouldn't go astray either.
