Yes, CPU puts the addresses on the bus, waits until the end of its cycle 
and then takes whatever it finds on the data lines (in a read cycle). 
Also, the CPU addresses need to go through the multiplexers (the two 
74LS257) and their timing is controlled by VIC through the /CAS line.

The 6510/6502 is pretty rigid in this respect.
