Yes.
Keep in mind, that even if you have an graphics card in your Miggy with an suitable monitor attached *AND* additionally plug in the Amiga (OCS/AGA) monitor, you are able to switch between them with the key combinations "Amiga & N/M".

So would I see it kind of normal if the graphic data is stored in the CHIP RAM and in the RAM on the graphics card as well...
All the best,
