No, unless you don't go back to previous gnome-screensaver version.

BTW if you've set to lock the screen by default when screensaver
starts, just running:
  gdbus call --session --dest org.gnome.ScreenSaver --object-path /
--method org.gnome.ScreenSaver.SetActive true

Will turn off the screen and lock.

Title:
  Lockscreen doesn't turn off the screen

Bug description:
  The new Unity lock screen doesn't turn off the monitor screen.

  I can wait as long as 10 minutes after activating the lock screen and
  the monitor still doesn't trun off. Then when I unlock the screen and
  don't use mouse or keyboard monitor will turn off (it's about 5
  seconds after unlocking).
