Yes.
The problem is when? A tall stand of rye may not release the N until after the corn needs it. To, be sure......the N is still there, it is just not metabolized yet.
ARG, with it's finer leaves and less top growth, generally gives the N back quicker ( the microbes are able to metabolize the ARG quicker and release the N).
