Yes, if playing in the original park is no longer an option. That's been the case in MLB since 1910, according to the notes I have.
A change was made for 2007 which states that in the case of a postponed game being made up at the other club's park, that other club will bat first in the make up game even though the game is taking place at its park. The minors gradually adopted this rule also, and all the affiliated minors use it now.
