Multiple Notes app instances on iPadOS 26

Can someone who’s upgraded to iPadOS 26 please confirm that it is still possible to have multiple Notes windows open at the same time (each showing a different note)? Thank you in advance. I’d read a comment on one of the later betas that this is no longer possible under the new iPadOS 26 multitasking. This would be a game changer for me as I do this all the time.

It is possible by using the Windowed Apps feature. (I was able to show 2 separate notes side-by-side.)
