Not exactly. Linefeed normalization occurs _before parsing_,
and only involves CR and LF _characters_: see XML spec,
section 2.11. An explicit 
 entity will be resolved to the
respective Unicode character during the parsing (i.e. after
the whitespace normalization), and delivered to the application
in a regular fashion.

Yes, we don't perform linefeed normalization _inside_ XEP:
a newline is generated when the SAX parser delivers one of
U+000A, U+000D, U+2028, or U+2029 (unless it is swallowed
by the effect of 'linefeed-treatment' processing).
