Possibly a dumb question - but are these models useful for homology finding? If you have two homologous genes, do they have similar embeddings?

The reason I ask is I have a bunch of genes where I can’t get much better than a 1:many orthology mapping, and if this method can capture related promoters/intronic regions etc per gene, and tell me if they are related, that would be a huge help (assuming this works on eukaryotic genomes).
