It will depend on the Minimum API Target, default I think is 15, 19 would be better and 21 is still within reason. If you set both Max and Min to 28, no, it will not run on lower devices than API 28.
I'm using Gradle 5.0, newest NDK, Max 28 - Min 19, Android Plugin 3.3.0... I compile the app in the terminal, never have been able to get it to build in Lazarus without parse "--info" error, build fails, pertaining to gradle clean build --info I assume.
If you just want to know if you can use the newest NDK to build your app, yes, but Min target is important.
