Sorry, there's been a few rule changes here and there since the original version, so apologies if anything is less clear than it could be.
Doc Scratch DOES learn which coins have been flipped in this version.
The paradox clone part is just referring to the fact that there might be times when using a single clone would not change the number of people needed to lynch, since it always requires 51% of the players to agree on a lynch target.
For example, with 6 players alive, it would take 4 players to lynch somebody on that day, or 51% of the playerlist. If Scratch used a single clone on that day, it would still only require 4 votes to lynch since there are now 7 "players" alive on that day. If he used 2 clones on the other hand, it would then count as 8 players alive, and require 5 to lynch. And for every other two clones after that, it would require another vote to lynch, and so on. Hopefully that makes sense somewhat?
So I guess the short answer to your question is: Yes, unless he only uses a single clone on a day when there are an even number of people alive.
