Yes.

Fedora has updates and updates-testing channels, this is the latter.

The layout at ATrpms looks like this:

release			release w/o updates
updates			released before EOL updates
updates-testing		pending  before EOL updates
updates-legacy		released legacy updates
updates-legacy-testing	pending legacy updates

So for building package in chroots, you probably only want

o either release by itself only (for 100% ensuring ABI compatibility),
  or
o release & updates & updates-legacy

IMHO other combinations don't make much sense for your goals.
