I haven't tried in a while, but probably yes, since the effect of both
enables was quite similar, otherwise normally extensions live in
/usr/lib/xtables/* as dynamic objects (where you can add new ones, which
is what xtables-addons does besides adding new kernel modules, with the
scenario right now being every extension linked into the iptables
/usr/sbin/xtables-multi binary).
Regards.
