Yes, but apparently it only works when both adaptors are full-duplex.
Half-duplex mode needs collision-detect circuitry building in (as the

All you need
is a AUI --> Thinnet (10Base2) or AUI --> 10Bt tranceiver.
I get the impression that two-node 10Bt networking can be done with
nothing but a crossover cable. (IE the chaining connection on hubs is
just a crossover) Is this possibly true, using just the cable?
