Yes. From the documentation:

,----
| By default HAProxy operates in a tunnel-like mode with regards to persistent
| connections: for each connection it processes the first request and forwards
| everything else (including additional requests) to selected server. Once
| established, the connection is persisted both on the client and server
| sides. Use "option http-server-close" to preserve client persistent 
connections
| while handling every incoming request individually, dispatching them one after
| another to servers, in HTTP close mode. Use "option httpclose" to switch both
| sides to HTTP close mode. "option forceclose" and "option
| http-pretend-keepalive" help working around servers misbehaving in HTTP close
| mode.
