Is it possible to generate an upgrade release using mix release without distillery?

Is it possible to generate an upgrade release using mix release? I mean without distillery?

If I create appup files and a relup file, can I place them somewhere in the project and run mix release to generate an upgrade release with it?

If not, is mix release going to support this in the near future?
