Yes, but... Helios-44 can be rather soft up close (Jupiter-9 is even softer, no matter how much stopped down it is). I haven't tried a Takumar for macro.

From "The Pentax Manual" by Joseph D. Cooper, 1975, the Close-up Data table for Takumar 50/1.4 shows for extension tubes 2+3, magnification is 1.09x, for 1+2+3 1.28x. Reversed on bellows it does up to 4.72x (!)
