Not in the current version in Pd-extended.

Yeah, the search order needs to be changed so that it searches each folder for
every type before moving to the next folder.  Right now, you cannot have an
abstraction called 'myobect' ever if you have myobject.pd_linux anywhere in
your path, even if myobject.pd is in the same folder as the patch.  That's
broken in my opinion.

It will be included if someone becomes the maintainer of pmpd in Pd-extended. 
I just don't have the time to do this for everything any more.  You can see
the list of library maintainers here:
