Can the RAXE500 6E router mesh with the AX8 Mesh Extender

I know the AX8 is not a Wi-Fi 6E device, but can it still be used as a mesh extender (working with the RAXE500) supporting the traditional Wi-Fi bands?  Will Netgear release a 6E compatible mesh extender?

will it work? Yes. 
It'll work. The RAXE500 still has the 2.4ghz and 5ghz bands that can be extended
