No. Changing the name of renderer-test seems to do nothing on 1.28. According to the first post in this thread:

Note: This will not work with recent versions of Kindle for PC. The last PC version in which KFX can be disabled can be downloaded directly from Amazon using this link: Kindle for PC 1.24.3 (51068).
Additional steps, linked to below, are required to make this method work with recent versions of Kindle for Mac.
1.24.3 will also work with the latest tools to decrypt kfx, so you can have things both ways by changing the name of renderer-test according to your preferences.
