Yes they can in these scenarios:

- Dynamic method calls that get de-virtualized, because there is only one visible implementation, including across shared libraries

- Inlining across shared libraries

- Adaptation of new CPU opcodes, for example a Java application written in 2000 could in theory make use of AVX, without being recompiled.

- In the same vein, that is how shading languages work
