Yes.  But not in /etc/inittab.

The normal chkconfig interface still works with upstart, and the inittscripts 
are still in /etc/init.d, and symlinks are still in /etc/rcX.d, with upstart.

/etc/inittab is only used to set the default runlevel in upstart, as documented 
in /etc/inittab itself, at least on my RHEL 6.1 system.

But it's runlevel emulation, not classic SysV runlevels, and upstart is capable 
of event-driven daemon loading/unloading.  The F15 and later systemd goes 
beyond that.
