Yes; --release 16 is generally preferred as a cleaner, more complete way of
requesting 16-ness from javac. However, use of features like the @modules tag
in jtreg can preclude use from --release because of interactions like:
exporting a package from system module jdk.jdeps is not allowed with
--release
