That's how I play it. I barre the A with my index finger. I then keep it there and use my ring on the 3 on the A string and my pinky on the 3 on the G string. I then slide my pinky to the 4 of the G string and put my index on the 2 of the A string. I hope that made sense.

i love this jam, i play off of it alot with barre slides from 11 to 12 and in the A minor penatonic. I think its really well designed for improv because as long as you end up back at the firstr 2 chords itll fit.
