Yes, but there are funny things with the various -line-format variables.
The help text for gnus-group-line-format says, among other things:
Also note that if you change the format specification to include any
of these specs, you must probably re-start Gnus to see them go into
effect.
This sounds like it refers only to some specific format specifiers.
However, I recall past conversations where the -line-format's only took
hold if you did something special after modifying them. I couldn't find
anything in a quick review of the -line-format variables. (There are lots
of them!)
