Yes
In "Organize a Recommendation Track Transition", you can read

[[
Does this specification have any normative references to W3C specifications
that are not yet Proposed Recommendations? *Note:* In general, documents do
not advance to Recommendation with normative references to W3C
specifications that are not yet Recommendations.
]]

Well, it remains the same, but you have to remove the # sign

It is only http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#>

But as before you can reference datatypes by doing
http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#>#int
