Not at all. its-* should be used in XHTML only if such XHTML file is
going to be published and consumed by web browser. Otherwise it's better
to stick to real XHTML:
http://www.w3.org/TR/its20/#xhtml5-markup
"Note:
Please note that this section defines how to use ITS in XHTML content
which is directly served to Web browsers. Such XHTML is very often sent
with a wrong media type and parsed as HTML not as XML in Web browsers.
In such case it is more robust and safer to use HTML-like syntax for ITS
metadata.
However when XHTML is not used as a delivery but rather as an exchange
or storage format all XML features can be used in XHTML and it's advised
to use XML syntax for ITS metadata."
