No, because the eco package do it (for text only). But it is not compatible
with ae : you need cm-super if you want type1 fonts (or use 7bit fonts).

If you want oldstyle digits for math also, you should try

 \DeclareMathSymbol{0}{\mathalpha}{letters}{`0}
 \DeclareMathSymbol{1}{\mathalpha}{letters}{`1}
 \DeclareMathSymbol{2}{\mathalpha}{letters}{`2}
 \DeclareMathSymbol{3}{\mathalpha}{letters}{`3}
 \DeclareMathSymbol{4}{\mathalpha}{letters}{`4}
 \DeclareMathSymbol{5}{\mathalpha}{letters}{`5}
 \DeclareMathSymbol{6}{\mathalpha}{letters}{`6}
 \DeclareMathSymbol{7}{\mathalpha}{letters}{`7}
 \DeclareMathSymbol{8}{\mathalpha}{letters}{`8}
 \DeclareMathSymbol{9}{\mathalpha}{letters}{`9}

in the preamble.

the eco package is on texlive7 (with cm-super) and on ctan

tex-archive/fonts/eco/

the cm-super are also on ctan

tex-archive/fonts/ps-type1/cm-super/
