Yes, but it's not pragmatic or intuitive to use the && operator as a stand in for an inline if statement in non-JSX-land. Doing this is something of an ugly anti-pattern, `let foo = bar > 12 && "there are dozens of us!"`. The fact that it works as an inline if for JSX is almost an accident that has now been abused into convention.
