I don't believe so, (but I've never tested), preferring to add that
option to preseed.cfg instead. The line in preseed.cfg is:-
apt-mirror-setup apt-setup/non-free boolean true

Yes. (append to the main debian repostitory line).
NOTE: you will also need to enable the contrib section of the
repostitory. (packages needed by non-free).
