Yes, you'll have Normal, Tow Haul, Slippery, Eco and Sport. You're missing Mud Ruts and Sand, which are Fx4 package. I think Forscan enables you to unlock everything regardless of trim.
Unless I am mistaken, I think there is a limit to how many you can have available at any one time. I know Forscan can unlock the missing modes, but I believe it comes at the cost of removing an existing mode at a 1 to 1 ratio. Which seems weird since it is all just software coding. But I think that is what I saw when I was looking into it.
That is great. I thought it was weird when I read opening up the additional modes was at the "cost" of killing a default mode. Glad I was wrong.

Technically there are 2 methods to accomplish this.
You can either unlock one or the other driving mode package or the second more popular method is bypass the package settings and unlock the drive modes individually.
(Owning a Tremor) I have tried this. Given I only paid for a $25 cable, the format of the code was not the same as I have seen on multiple YouTube videos. I was not able to look at my powertrain (in which I would figure that is where the modes are on Mav) and did find an "ECO mode" but nothing was the same as the videos and did not feel comfortable making any changes. Going to try the suggested $60 cable. Not sure how to get the modes on the Maverick Tremor but sure would be nice! Any suggestions?
