I do not believe so. Look in arch/x86/kernel/kvmclock.c
kvm_clock_get_cycles() is not normalized for instance. We need to
normalize kvm_sched_clock_read() and xen_sched_clock(), because it is
used by printk() as a sched_clock() prefix. So not to be confusing we
print time starting from 0, but the other instances where
xen_clocksource_read()  is used do not need that.

Thank you,
