That would not follow the Pomodoro Technique - 
http://www.scribd.com/doc/36672142/The-Pomodoro-Technique

More specifically: 
"If you finish a task while the Pomodoro is still ticking, the following rule 
applies: If a Pomodoro Begins, It Has to Ring. It’s a good idea to take 
advantage of the opportunity for overlearning (17), using the remaining portion 
of the Pomodoro to review or repeat what you’ve done, make small 
improvements, and note down what you’ve learned until the Pomodoro rings.  

If you finish an activity in the first five minutes of the Pomodoro and you 
feel like the task was actually already finished during the previous Pomodoro 
and revision wouldn’t be worthwhile, as an exception to the rule the current 
Pomodoro doesn’t have to be included in the Pomodoro count"
