It's not dependant on auditd. The kernel itself decides if a rule is valid.

If you are looking to see if this is supported
-a always,exclude -F exec=/usr/bin/ls
then it can be detected by:
uint32_t features = audit_get_features();
if ((features & AUDIT_FEATURE_BITMAP_EXCLUDE_EXTEND) == 0)
puts("not supported");
else
puts("supported");
