Having just been through this I found the answer is "NO".
In fact, we wanted the /usr filesystem LFE and could NOT accomplish that. IBM Austin recommended a separate filesystem mounted where we wanted it. So we created one mounted on /usr/??? and it works fine. System treats it as a sub-directory of /usr.
To load we backed up our data and its subdirectories with find|backup to tape; rm'ed the filesystem; built a new one of the same name with LFE; restored the data from the tape; and all is well.
Good luck.
