Yes. This effectively converts an online UPS to an offline UPS
without power reconditioning, but significantly improves energy
efficiency, which can be useful in certain circumstances. Running
UPS in ECO mode is generally seen as an informed decision made
by users who are well-aware of the risks and tradeoffs here.
