Generally, yes. A subtropical storm almost always has a wind field that is lopsided, with the maximum winds as a result further from the low level center. You could see it very clearly in the early stages of subtropical development of Nicole, as maximum winds and convection were well east.
Since then, the wind field has tightened and become more symmetrical, as is necessary for a tropical cyclone—this organization allowed Nicole to become a hurricane.
Hope that helps.
