No. In basic mode there were 3 15-bit index refisters and selected
index registers were OR'd together; in multiple tag mode there were
seven 15-bit index registers. In both cases the contents of the index
register were subtracted from the Y field. In the case of the XEC
instruction, that's the Y field of the XEC instruction, not of the
target instruction.
