Yes. It’s essentially an ARM A-series chip — it has firmware (BridgeOS) and does have a DFU mode. See https://help.apple.com/configurator/mac/2.7.1/#/apd0020c3d

Best have your spare MacBook available to do it!

  Desktop Macs should also be fine. I wouldn't be surprised if Apple ships Configurator iOS someday, but today is not that day.

  Love to need another $3000 machine to fix my $3000 machine

    Right now, yes, but in usual circumstances you could just borrow a friend's box, your IT department could fix it, or you could have a el-cheapo Mac (either an old one or like a Mini from 2010) that can run Configurator (which doesn't require a recent version of OS X, I don't think). Still sucks, just a bit less. not really different than an iPhone, except that you can rebuild those on Windows (for now).
