Answer I believe it is yes, not 100% Sure though.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the absence of oxygen, the net yield of ATP produced is 2 per glucose molecule. ATP is formed in the presence of oxygen in the process known as aerobic cellular respiration. This process occurs within mitochondria of eukaryotic cells.
