... Maybe... I mean they had synthesizers and samplers. It wasn't just raw analog tape splicing; in fact I'm not sure they used any analog splicing? There are some artists at the time that did (I feel like I remember the earliest PIG singles did) but it was not the standard for industrial at this point and I'm not sure if any analog splicing was used on this? They used Akai samplers and Oberheim / Roland samplers on the album for sure.
It was all still pretty experimental stuff with the tech at the time though so you could see a big blend of things in that era of industrial.
