Kinda. I allow JS to work locally on the site, but do not allow third-party JS, nor any access to third-party ressources from sites by default.

I've never blocked js because it breaks so much functionality. That could be a useful compromise.

You also obviously have to allow the standard CDNs and such, but the result is that 90% of the web then "just works", without most of the tracking or problems.
