Yes, this is supported.

If no valid CRL information is available locally from the cache, charon
fetches CRLs from these URIs until it finds a valid up-to-date CRL. This
happens independently of any strictcrlpolicy setting.

If strictcrlpolicy is "yes" or "ifuri", the certificate is rejected if
fetching from all of the contained URIs did not yield a valid up-to-date
CRL.

Martin
