Can Asahina Hideki straighten Strongholds with the appropriate title?

For example:

Temple of Persistance

Temples of the Crow

Temple of Hoshi

Temple of the Ninth Kami

Thank You.

Lotus Rulebook, pg 24:

The Keyword Rule does not apply when referring to a major card type, like “Sensei”, or to a game term that has a formal definition, like “army,” “Defender,” or “Infantry.” It also does not apply to Sensei cards or to Strongholds.
