7200 - Software based so yes. (Probably more comparible to a J4350 or
J6350 anyway)
7600 - Hardware accelerated NAT in the PFE
ASR1000 - Hardware accelerated NAT
GSR 12k - Requires the MSB (Multi-Service Blade)
CRS-1 - No support (But it's a core router right?  Like a T-series)

(Note: I could be wrong on the last two as my exposure is very limited)
