I didn't think so, but a read of the code shows me that it is.

Basically, it looks like when a message comes in TMDA checks the 
following addresses against your incoming filter in this order:
  - The envelope sender
  - The X-Primary-Address: header
  - The From: header
  - The Reply-To: header
As soon as even one of these match, the action specified by the filter 
is carried out.
