No it doesn't. The EABI mandates that code be interworking safe. It's possible to implement this is an way that only uses bx when actually returning to Thumb code, ie when you already know your hardware supports bx. In practice many distros may assume Thumb capable hardware in the same way many x86 distros assume at least i486 or i686, but that's an entirely different issue.
