no, just what the console and memory permit

\doifmodeelse{somemode} { } { } etc etc etc

this concerns examodes stuff that we use for process control at pragma

best use ctx files instead, like in
== somefile.ctx ===
<?xml version='1.0' standalone='yes'?>
<ctx:job>
<ctx:preprocess/>
<ctx:flags>
<ctx:flag>texengine=luatex</ctx:flag>
<ctx:flag>interface=en</ctx:flag>
</ctx:flags>
<ctx:process>
<ctx:resources>
<ctx:mode>proofing</ctx:mode>
<ctx:environment>somestyle.tex</ctx:environment>
</ctx:resources>
</ctx:process>
<ctx:postprocess/>
</ctx:job>
texexec .... --ctx=somefile
