Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

FRE 806 states that if a hearsay statement is admitted against a party, if the party calls the declarant as a witness, the party may examine the declarant on that statement as if on cross examination. Does �as if on cross examination� go to the extent of allowing leading questions on the direct examination of the declarant, concerning the hearsay statement?
