Sort of.

There is another explanation as well which physicists don't like any better. And that is that electromagnetic waves propagate backward in time as well as forward in time. This does, however, bind such FTL communication to occurring on the Einstein light cone from the initial entanglement event.

From an engineering perspective; however, both explanations look like FTL action at a distance.
