Yes, however I don't see too much benefit in that.

crm.el is just a handful of variables and functions amounting to
~200LOC, half of which is docstrings, and it doesn't require anything
else.

Furthermore, there are at least 8 styles including popular ones like
hyperref and listings which would load it anyway, just later.  Probably
there are many more that don't use it currently only because their
package options haven't been implemented yet.

That said, I don't have a strong opinion on that.  If you prefer the
on-demand loading version, I'm happy to change it accordingly.
