No it does not, at least not properly.

It might work with API only plugins, but any javascript of new plugins needs to be compiled which happens in the build process.

Therefore, to add a new plugin you must perform a rebuild in most cases.

The other issue you have is that changing core build scripts may get you into deep trouble if you are not careful, especially if there is a significant enough change to core scripting.
