Yes.  From the Texinfo manual:

     You may optionally give arguments to the ‘@example’ command,
  separated by commas if there is more than one.  In the HTML output, any
  such arguments are output as class names, prefixed by the string
  ‘user-’.  This may be useful for adding syntax highlighting to manuals
  for code samples.

     We recommend that when you give multiple arguments to ‘@example’, you
  use the first argument to specify the language of the code (e.g. ‘C’,
  ‘lisp’, ‘Cplusplus’).  You may find uses for other arguments, such as
  providing a formatting hint or marking code samples for extraction and
  further processing, but for now nothing definitive is recommended.
  Perhaps this will change in future Texinfo releases.

So it's a documented feature.
