Yes. This core is not part of the SoC's fixed hardware: it is a design
compiled into the FPGA fabric. When the core is added to a design in
Vivado, IBI and Hot-Join are options that are turned on or off, so two
builds -- or two instances in the same build -- can use the identical IP
version and still differ in which features are present.

The compatible string identifies the IP core and its version. It says 
nothing about which options were selected when
that instance was built, so it cannot imply the capability.

Thanks,
Shubham
