yes
speed is a scalar quantity. it has only magnitude.
but velocity is a vector quantity. it has both magnitude and velocity.
consider an example,
a body moving with constant speed in a circle.
here, the speed is constant. But it's velocity vary from point to point because the direction of velocity is tangential to the path , which changes from point to point.

Answer:
Yes it's true
Explanation:
example if we take objects moving in circular motion the speed of object remains constant because the speed is a scalar quantity it has only magnitude where as velocity is an vector quantity it depends on both magnitude and direction in each point the direction changes in motion in a circular path therefore velocity varies
therefore A body can have constant speed and it still will have varying velocity
