Yes, electric current can flow through human body.
Human body is a very good conductor of electricity. We know that our body is made up of 70% water. Water, already is a good conductor of electricity. Besides, our body has various electrolytes (like ions of potassium, sodium etc used for various body purposes) which facilitates the movement of charge. Due to these factors, our body becomes an excellent conductor of electricity.

Answer:
YES.....More than 99% of the body's resistance to electric current flow is at the skin. ... The skin acts like an electrical device such as a capacitor in that it allows more current to flow if a voltage is changing rapidly.
