It doesn't say, though I'm going to guess maybe yes? It does suggest play calling by coaches will be more strategic and informed, for example, coming out of time outs. If that's the case, it could mean the AI recognizes matchups to exploit on offense. And if that's the case, then maybe it also recognizes matchup issues on defense and makes adjustments.
Just speculation, but possible. Plus I remember Czar making some comment just before or after release last year when asked about matchups. He said the CPU does not recognize mismatches "this year." That was a year ago, so maybe that means they were working on it backstage and it made it into this year's game.
