Really ? I would have expected the order to be the exact reverse of the
order of building:
src = main.c
hdr = lib.h
prog: $$(src); $(CC) -o $@ $<
main.c: $$(hdr)
surely has to evaluate $$(src) to discover that prog depends on main.c,
and only after it's discovered that will it evaluate $$(hdr); but if
there were a rule to make main.c from lib.h that rule would be evaluated
before the rule for prog.

That, at least, should be the case either way.
