Answering my own question: "yes".

We use Encode::find_encoding as well as Encode::{de,en}code in
gitweb and git-svn, so it is very likely that anybody who has a full
installation of Git would already have it on their system.  Also
Encode.pm is distributed as part of Perl itself, if I am not
mistaken.
