As Rich said, NO. Here is an explanation.

A recovery agent can read an EFS encrypted file (or any user with an
imported copy of the owner's private key or a recovery agent's private
key).

However, you need the user who was the recovery agent at the time that the
file was last successfully opened (when it was last descrypted/encrypted).
