Yes, on-disk formats are compatible.

If you use loop-AES' loop.o module with mount+losetup from kerneli.org, no
other change is needed. However, mount+losetup from loop-AES package use
slightly different syntax and defaults:

kerneli.org syntax:

    mount -t ext3 /dev/??? /mnt -o loop=/dev/loop0,encryption=aes,keybits=128
                                                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
loop-AES syntax:

    mount -t ext3 /dev/??? /mnt -o loop=/dev/loop0,encryption=AES128,phash=rmd160
                                                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
