Of course. Now, aliases help a bit here, turning that into something
like:

alias Bounded!(int, 1, 5) myInt;

myInt[] myArr;
myArr ~= myInt( 1 );


I believe using an alias would be a good idea in most such cases, as
one's bound to write Bounded!(int,1,6) in a long program, and
wonder why it doesn't compile.
