Must be able to do so, otherwise the whole basis of the stall certification would have changed, as it would make the aircraft "envelope protected" if MCAS were able to prevent a stall.
AFAIK 737MAX has no such radical change in the certification approach. It seems to be intended to enhance/amend/adjust stall characteristics, not to make a more fundamental design change.
