yes, but according to this there seems unnided check in ath9k_process_rssi for 
modes:

        if (!rx_stats->is_mybeacon ||
            ((ah->opmode != NL80211_IFTYPE_STATION) &&
             (ah->opmode != NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC)))
                 return;
                 
currently is_mybeacon true only in station mode, it set by this code:

                if (ieee80211_is_beacon(hdr->frame_control)) {
                        RX_STAT_INC(rx_beacons);
                        if (!is_zero_ether_addr(common->curbssid) &&
                            ether_addr_equal(hdr->addr3, common->curbssid))
                                rs.is_mybeacon = true;
                        else
                                rs.is_mybeacon = false;
                        }
                else
                        rs.is_mybeacon = false;

as i understand correctly common->curbssid exists only in client mode.
