In short, yes, since that path is in LD_LIBRARY_PATH when Sage runs. I think if the *shared* libraries have exactly the same name, then which will be used at runtime is determined by the library load path. In particular, LD_LIBRARY_PATH if set will be searched first, then the system standard library path.
