Yes. If you look at the IOS 12.2 Command Reference for this command:

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122cgcr/
fiprmc_r/mult/1rfmult2.htm#1019713

Usage Guidelines

Use this command on Frame Relay, Switched Multimegabit Data Service
(SMDS), or ATM only, especially when these media do not have native
multicast available. Do not use this command on multicast-capable LANs
such as Ethernet or FDDI.

When this command is configured, each Protocol Independent Multicast
(PIM) join message is tracked in the outgoing interface list of a
multicast routing table entry. Therefore, only PIM WAN neighbors that
have joined for the group will get packets sent as data-link unicasts.
This command should only be used when the ip pim sparse-mode command is
configured on the interface. This command is not recommended for LANs
that have natural multicast capabilities.
