Probably; I've found that those key combinations seem to work in most every
X-based program I've tried. Still, it means using 2 hands, instead of just
mouse-only. Not the best of design choices.  I mean, even XWC has toolbar
buttons for what - you would think - would be the most used frequently
commands for a GUI file manager.
