Yes, but it can't be used when Wifi bands are split. See https://www.xfinity.com/hub/internet/home-network-wifi-extenders and https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/xfi-pods-faqs

Why can I no longer have different WiFi network names and passwords for my 2.4GHz and 5GHz WiFi networks?
Xfinity WiFi Extenders require that you only have one WiFi network name and password ...
