The documentation says it Won't work but it seems to work.

https://v3.vuejs.org/guide/component-custom-events.html#event-names

I checked in the following source code.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <script src="https://unpkg.com/vue@3.0.2"></script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="counter">
      {{ count }}
      <my-component @my-event="doSomething"></my-component>
    </div>
    <script>
      const App = {
        data() {
          return { count: 0 };
        },
        methods: {
          doSomething() {
            this.count++;
          },
        },
      };

      const app = Vue.createApp(App);

      app.component("MyComponent", {
        template: `<button @click="onClick">+1</button>`,
        emits: ["myEvent"],
        methods: {
          onClick() {
            this.$emit("myEvent");
          },
        },
      });

      app.mount("#counter");
    </script>
  </body>
</html>

Also, if I use a compiled component, I will get a warning if I define the emits option in the kebab-case.
vuejs/eslint-plugin-vue#1347
The recommended casing for the event name is the kebab-case, but should we actually recommend the camelCase?
