As far as I know, yes. I have tested pg_autovacuum against 7.3.x and
that work fine.
Since pg_autovacuum is just a standard client app that looks at stats
collector info to make decisions about when to vacuum, it should work.
I think there may be been some stats collector bugs that have been fixed
since 7.2.x, but for the most part it should work just fine.
Please post your results as it might be useful to know if it works.
