yes. the dn-parts aren't compared with the attributes given to an entry.
neither the objectclasses are checked wether they allow this attribute or
not. AFAIK you can also use:

dn: some.not.existing.attribute=blah,dc=blah,dc=blah
someattribute: smthng
..

btw: i think this is specific to openldap..
