Well, "some kind of", yes. Like this:

While trying to retrieve the URL:
http://www.%D1%8B%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BF%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BF.com/

The following error was encountered:

    * * Invalid URL *

You just cannot enter a multilingual domain into a browser's URL field.
Syntax validation fails immediately. MLTLD-s just do not work.
