Yes, but.... according to the RAF documents, except for takeoff, 3000 RPM and +12 boost should only be used over rated altitude, below rated altitude, 2850 rpm was recommended. However, this did not stop pilots from using 3000 rpm and +12 boost down lower.
The fact is, pilots will do things which are not necessarily in the manual, just because they are pilots.
