No, behind third base would be considered out of the base path. When you go out of the base path it is an automatic out.
The runner is out by rule for getting "a running start" such as on a tag-up after a caught fly ball. The baseline has nothing to do with this play. A runner is out for going out of the baseline only if avoiding a tag.
