Not when released to public in any way. Internally in one's house
person may do what one wishes, internally in the company, company may
do what they want with it.
They cannot sell it, or in any way release to public as license does
not allows it.
Emacs package modifies Emacs and requires Emacs to run and thus
creates modified version of Emacs and has to be GPL3+
compatible. Emacs package with Emacs editor make a combined
program.
