Basically if it is accepted into the mainline kernel then yes, otherwise not unless people decide to install custom kernels. Distros backport a little bit, but generally don't include anything not accepted into mainline. Then there are a few popular custom kernels that include changes not included in mainline because they are not generally useful, and only make sense for specific workloads.
