Only if they are paid enough to make it an income.
If they are paid, for example, an annual stipend which reflects their work but isn't enough to make it a daily job, that would be a huge step in the right direction. You could even make it depend on the size of the subreddit since bigger ones take a lot more work than smaller ones... but never enough to actually live on.
I think a lot of moderators would be very happy to get a couple of thousand dollars a year for their work.
