Almost certainly - e.g. the J&J vaccine (a DNA vaccine, not mRNA, but same principle) is using a viral delivery platform that they'd had sitting on the shelf for years and have used for other vaccines.

After the massive capex that has gone into mass-production of encapsulated mRNA delivery systems, I suspect this new technology will be very cost-competitive for the big markets like the annual flu vaccine.
