Correct, I tested it:
Tested with HTTP connector
<Connector port="8080"
protocol="HTTP/1.1"
connectionTimeout="20000"
redirectPort="8443"
maxParameterCount="1000"
/>
and it loaded Native 1:
14:41:48.471 INF> (main)
(org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener#lifecycleEvent) Loaded Apache
Tomcat Native library [1.3.1] using APR version [1.7.4].

14:41:48.489 INF> (main)

Then changed protocol
protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
but it still loaded only Native 1.
Then renamed tcnative-1.dll so that Tomcat does not find it.
Then it loaded Native 2:

(org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener#lifecycleEvent) Loaded Apache

You can only load one version of Tomcat Native into the JVM at any one time. If
both are present, 1.x is used in preference to 2.x.
