Most likely not. Even in the mid-80s when I served, the only T-72s exported were those 4-crew - an extra grunt instead of the autoloading device and with (mostly?) older optical parallax rangefinders rather than the laser ones.
Soviets had many - tens of thousands, of older T54 and T55 and advanced but unreliable T64 tanks in conservation and did not like to sell modern stuff. For backward countries against backward countries old stuff performed exellently, but to allow the modern stuff to be used by "savages" against a western admy - and get blown up despite quality - would just undeservedly discredit the quality of soviet-made military stuff.
Do you remember what Israeli's did with the obsolete disparate crap they had to the Syrians and Egyptians with fairly modern russian hardware?
Russians were mad as hell for such an inept misuse.


А что были такие Т-72?!!
