I do not think so because the second paragraph of section 10.2.1 says the SiteSyncSync state machine ignores sync information sent to them by the ClockMasterSyncSend state machine if the time-aware system is not grandmaster-capable. This is also re-iterated in the second paragraph of section 10.2.8.3. This seems to imply, albeit not in a very obvious way, that PortSyncSyncSend and MDSyncSend never operate in a time-aware system that is not grandmaster capable, hence no sync TX.
