yes and no. THe intake valve position 'can' be an advantage, but the problem then becomes that the chamber is all in the piston which can lead to odd piston designs/extra weight of a moving part vs a stationary one. Very generally the bathtub/wedge (some combination of those two) head tends to be the one to go for for 2 valve heads when it's all said and done.

there's probably a few diesels that have heads like that (obviously not pre-chamber ones) if for no other reason than to get at the required static comp ratios necessary for a diesel to work in the first place.
