Yes, they have done so for a number of years.
On some events the live timing also incorporates a 'tracking' system that shows vehicle locations on the circuit in graphical form. But I think that depends if the organisers have requested / paid for it.
If it's still the same process the system updates from the transponder signal as it passes the control line and any sectors that are provided and then 'guesstimates' the position between sectors based upon their lap times, then corrects any differences at the next sector and so on.
