OP: Yes.

The terminal numbers indicate the contact functions. L1, L2, L3 are the line side and T1, T2, T3 are the load side of the 3-pole main load circuit contacts, as per NEMA coding. 1,3,5 and 2,4,6 are the equivalents using the IEC coding scheme.

So provided the circuit going in on L1 & L3 is the lighting supply and has the necessary protection upstream of the contactor, then the luminaires connect to T1 & T3.
