I kindly suggest that you read the manual (RTFM) before asking
questions that are already answered there.
Canonical mappings can rewrite the envelope addresses (i.e. what
Postfix delivers) without changing the addresses in the message
header (i.e. what the mail client shows).

If it is not documented, then it is not supported.
