Checking the code:
https://gitlab.nic.cz/labs/bird/-/blob/master/proto/rpki/rpki.c#L279
Seems like it.

Instead heavily suggest running 2 stayrtr instances yourself. What if you lose
connectivity to the outside world?
For AS57777 I generate IRR data rpki-client and rsync rpki-client.json every 10
minutes to my 2 stayrtr instances.
If the rpki-client hosts goes down, then they do not update the
rpki-client.json as there is no new one, but stayrtr stays up and running.
If I upgrade stayrtr, there is always the second one up and running. Scale to
more nodes for more resiliency :).
On top I run another set of stayrtr instances for IRR data, need to write that
down still how that setup now finally works.
