Yes, although I'd recommend to use the ELPA-devel package which would
automatically be built for every new commit so that you don't have to
hassle with pulling and building yourself.
For example, I use some packages from the ELPA devel archive like so:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("gnu-devel" . "https://elpa.gnu.org/devel/") t)
(setopt package-archive-priorities
'(("gnu" . 10)
("nongnu" . 10)
("melpa" . 10)
;; Lower priority because I want to explicitly define for a single
;; package that this archive is to be used by pinning it there.
("gnu-devel" . 0)))
(use-package ef-themes
:ensure t
;; Use the bleeding-edge package from gnu-devel instead of the
;; released version from the gnu ELPA archive.
:pin gnu-devel
...)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Bye,
Tassilo
