It is... Here's a summary of the relevant part of the manpage:
-----------------------------8<-----------------------
pre-up command
[..desc of pre-up..]
up command
post-up command
[..desc of up/post-up..]
down command
pre-down command
[..desc of down/pre-down..]
post-down command
[..desc of post-down..]
----------------------------->8-----------------------
