It can, yes, but we have done that in the past. In this one, for
example:

commit 9e3aa61ae3e01ce1ce6361a41ef725e1f4d1d2bf (tag: io_uring-5.5-20191212)
Author: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
Date: Wed Dec 11 15:55:43 2019 -0700

io_uring: ensure we return -EINVAL on unknown opcod

But it would be safer/saner to do this like we have the done the IOSQE_
flags.
