Yes.  The policy is in <http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html#manage>; it doesn't
specifically say what happens where the bug is already in GNATS and the
testcase is to be added, but it should be clear from the instructions that
you can add the testcase to the testsuite, include a comment in the
testcase referencing the PR and add a note referencing the testcase to the
PR, and mark the testcase XFAIL iff it's not a regression.

Release engineering has in the past involved people running the branch
testsuite against both branch and previous releases (instructions for
running with an installed GCC being provided) as an additional check for
regressions (which may show up those that are only regressions on some
platforms).
