If the plan is for Groovy 3 to depend on JDK8 and Groovy 4 to depend on JDK9 then yes. However is there a need to be quite so conservative? Groovy has so often had "hacks" so a version of Groovy could make use of more recent JDKs and yet still work on "long past end of life" versions of JDK. In this vein Groovy 3 could have a JDK9 variant using Graal. This option would, I feel, be a good marketing line for Groovy.
