Not necessarily. It could return a function suitable for inclusion in a hook:
(defun turn-on (minor-mode-symbol)
`(lambda () (,minor-mode-symbol t)))
(add-hook 'foo-mode-hook (turn-on 'some-minor-mode))
Or maybe
(defun turn-on (&rest minor-mode-symbols)
`(lambda () ,@(mapcar (lambda (sym) (list sym t))
minor-mode-symbols)))
(add-hook 'foo-mode-hook (turn-on 'foo-minor-mode 'bar-minor-mode))
Excuse the fake lexical scoping hack. turn-on is probably also not the
right name, as (turn-on 'mode) not turning on any mode might be
confusing.
