Apparently not, according to the (draft) documentation:
documentation wrote:ArabTEX is a package extending the capabilities of TEX/LATEX to generate the Perso-Arabic writing from an ASCII transliteration for texts in several languages using the Arabic script. It consists of a TEX macro package and an Arabic font in several sizes, presently only available in the Naskhi style...
The draft documentation is an old document, so perhaps the package author has made some recent changes not recorded in the documentation. You could try contacting the author directly:
