No, "supporting" an encoding makes no sense. The encoding is a map from
(a range of) integers to glyphs. Computer modern is available in both
OT1 and T1 encodings. It is also available as Type1 and Type3 and also
as TrueType (which is not an Adobe format at all): the original Knuth
fonts were Type3, but Y&Y/Blue Sky produced, and eventually donated to
the AMS, Type1 versions. I'm not sure who did the TrueType version.

You can reencode a font (assign each glyph to a number different from
the original - basically apply a permutation to the original table): you
get a different encoding of the same font. That is true whether the font
is Type1 or Type3 or TrueType or ....
