Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Because they are consecutive, one is odd and one is even.

The square of an odd number is always odd

The square of an even number is always even

The difference between an odd number and an even number is always odd

Therefore, the difference between any 2 consecutive square numbers is always odd
