Answer:

Most certainly yes

Explanation: First you have to define what friction is "A force that resist motion" while Mechanical advantage " is simply a measure of the output force to the input force". Hence in a mechanical system if you increase friction in the system, it reduces the mechanical advantage and vice versa.
