Do we have the concept of deferred CHECK constraints?

For a constraint of this nature, I don't Oracle to check the whole table as I
have done the fixes to ensure there is no occurrence of invalid condition.

I only want the future ones to be checked.

ALTER TABLE KB.table
ADD CONSTRAINT CHECK_DATES
CHECK (ENDTIME >= STARTTIME AND STOPTIME >= NENDTIME); Thanks
