Yes indeed!  Rsync logs into the remote machine and executes a remote
rsync process as in plain rsync over SSH, except it tells the remote
process to run as a single-use daemon instead a server, using an
rsyncd.conf on the remote machine.  The daemon handles the client's
request using the daemon protocol over the SSH connection and exits
when the session is finished.  See "USING RSYNC-DAEMON FEATURES VIA A
REMOTE-SHELL CONNECTION" in the man page.
