Yes but if different types of crashkernel= options are mixes then
behavior is not defined.

crashkernel=X,high crashkernel=X
crashkernel=X,high crashkernel=Y;low
crashkernel=Y;low crashkernel=X

And possibilities go on. So I think it makes life simpler if we always
parse last crashkernel= option and act upon that. And use
crashkernel_no_auto_low to opt out of auto reserved low memory area.
