Yes, that's what I use. Once your kernel is complete, with ramdisk etc., make 
a copy of /boot somewhere, then "bootctl install", copy the loader.conf from 
your copy, then "bootctl update".

Older versions of bootctl used to create a /boot/<nn>/ directory, where nn was 
a 32-digit hex number, in which we were supposed to put our boot entries: far 
too complex for Gentoo, so I just deleted that directory.
