Yes, it can load drivers dynamically.
There is a reason why in-tree drivers are preferred, and that's because the Linux driver interface and API changes with kernel API changes. The API is considered unstable in the sense that is it not unchanging.
A driver written for one release of Linux may not work with the next release as the API changes.
