No; they cannot be used without modification.  You have a choice, on those
lenses which will fit on an SL or SL2 (the two are different), of having
three cams and the ability to use them on the SL or SL2, as the case may
be, or having the ROM, in which case you can use them only on R cameras
(R3 and later).
