I think not!! Parks Canada is VERY adamant about NO BOONDOCKING and while you may have got away with it in the past, it was just plain luck, and I would not plan on it in the future.
It is an APPROVED overflow "camping" at GPS N51° 23.230' W116° 07.787' and is about $10.00 CDN per night. No tents.
Different maps often are not very accurate in their coordinates (Streets and Trips or Google Maps) but those coordinates put you along Hwy 93, pretty close to the Marble Canyon campground in Kootenay National Park. There is no overflow campground there.
Robatthelake's comment was about boondocking at Lake Louise. From his directions it would be right in the little village of Lake Louise and for certain, no boondocking is allowed there.
Sorry try this screenshot from Google Earth
