As I've ever done anything to support it, I'd guess that the answer is no.
Now I'd need to look at it more closely to provide a better answer.

If your FS were decrypted, then you have a correct backup. However, it won't recreate crypted FS at restore time.
As I see you're in Belgium, I'll be at Fosdem this week-end so feel free to see me there if you're around yourself.
