Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
Work can be either positive or negative: if the force has a component in the same direction as the displacement of the object, the force is doing positive work. If the force has a component in the direction opposite to the displacement, the force does negative work.

The work done is said to be negative work when force and displacement are in opposite direction. example: When an object is thrown upwards,the force CTS in downward direction whereas displacement acts in upward direction.
