Yes.  Here is my /etc/X11/Xserver file for reference:

  /usr/bin/X11/XF86_S3
  Console

  The first line in this file is the full pathname of the default X server.
  The second line shows who is allowed to run the X server:
  RootOnly
  Console      (anyone whose controlling tty is on the console)
