Thanks!
The answer is yes, up to 24/48 only.
See this youtube link:

Anyway nobody can reliably tell the difference between 24/48 and 16/44 (if both identical files were recorded and recorded at 24/48 and one of them was downsampled to 16/44). So HiRes is useless at the user stage (but not at the mastering stage)...
Here is a summary of results using blind A/B tests on 140 respondents:
"As you can see, in aggregate there is no evidence to show that the 140 respondents were able to identify the 24-bit sample. In fact it was an exact 50/50 for the Vivaldi and Goldberg! As for the Bozza sample, more respondents actually thought the dithered 16-bit version was the "better" sounding 24-bit file (statistically non-significant however, p-value 0.28).
