No, but root under btrfs without extra /boot works.

Here is my simplified /etc/fstab:

# / was on /dev/sda3 during installation
/dev/sda3	/	btrfs  noatime,autodefrag,compress-force=lzo,subvol=@ 0 0 
/dev/sda3	/home	btrfs	noatime,autodefrag,compress-force=lzo,subvol=@home 0 0
# swap 
/dev/sda2	none          swap    sw      0       0

So, both / & /home are under btrfs subvolumes and everything works.

And according to https://wiki.debian.org/FileSystem XFS should be
capable to work as root FS.
