 Are FO implementation free to use TeX or possibly other Yes. The details of line breaking and hyphenation are implementation dependent. For example, a more sophisticated processor might be better at detecting and eliminating rivers and ladders than another. This is one area where two otherwise equivalent FO implementations might differ. There is a also a performance cost to doing more sophisticated line breaking, so different implementations may take different approaches in order to achieve different combinations of performance and rendition quality--if you're rendering invoices you probably don't care so much about the aesthetics of text layout but you may care about performance, but if you're producing books or magazines, you probably care very much about it and may be willing to accept slower processing in order to get it.
