Yes, but it doesn't yet support bidirectional editing and display.

You can't, not just yet. Work is under way to add support for UAX#9
features, but it is not yet in the repository, and even when it will
be, it's a long way from being complete or even anywhere near that.
Volunteers are welcome to join the effort (followup on
emacs-devel@gnu.org, if you want to volunteer).
