No.
The original, unmodified program CEEPIPI is documented in IBM Language
Environment for MVS & VM Programming Guide Document Number SC26-4818-05.
The use is explicitly documented as allowed:
"* Execution of applications written in the following languages is not
functionally supported on z/OS.e:
o COBOL (*except* for precompiled COBOL DB2(r) stored
procedures and other precompiled COBOL applications using the Language
Environment preinitialization interface (CEEPIPI))"
You may not run the compiler under z/os.e. The COBOL program must have
been complied using LE runtimes. There is no restriction found as to
which compliers may be used.
