Answer:

yes

Explanation:

The divisibility rule for 3 says the number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3. Rearranging the order of the digits does not change their sum.

A number that is divisible by 3 will be divisible by 3 when the digits of it are arranged in any order.
