Yes. It's exactly like how it works everywhere, though? You can't pollard any tree, it needs to have genetically predetermined ability to sprout from the stump.
“It is a little different, more like pollarding, and it doesn't work with any other conifers than saplings from one specific mutant cedar in a shrine near Kyoto.”

Unless you believe that Japanese version makes trees mutate, it's still pollarding.
The japanese version depends on propogating a specific mutated variant.
