Sure. Unless the x86_64 binary was built targeting 10.5 though, you probably 
also need to restrict the versions. E.g. if the binary works on 10.12 and later:

platforms {darwin any} {darwin >= 16}

Should that be ‘platforms {darwin >= 16}’? If not, I don’t really understand 
the syntax above yet.

The {darwin any} is what makes a single binary archive shared between all OS versions possible. Without it, separate archives for darwin_16, darwin_17, and so on would be built.

Being able to say {darwin any >= 16} might be clearer, but unfortunately that isn't accepted currently.
