Yes. See “How SUPER is Resolved” in perlobj#Inheritance:

The SUPER pseudo-class is resolved from the package where the call is made. It is not resolved based on the object’s class. This is important, because it lets methods at different levels within a deep inheritance hierarchy each correctly call their respective parent methods.

Hope that helps,
