No. For non-inlined task, I'd have to put the task somewhere far away
from the paragraph text:

** Section X

<paragraph 1>

<paragraph 2>
<...>
<paragraph N>
<...>
<multiple sreens of text>
<...>

*** TODO Task for paragraph N

Then, if I jump to the TODO, for example, from agenda view, I still need
to somehow find <paragraph N> location, which is awkward when the
section has multiple screens of text.
