Yes. The number of protons is determined by the element's atomic number on the Periodic Table of elements.

(Example: Nitrogen's atomic number is 7 therefore it has 7 protons.)

Can the mass number be used to determine the number of electrons in an atom?

No, the mass number (number of protons and neutrons) cannot be used to determine the number of electrons in an atom. The number of electrons in an atom is determined by the number of protons in the nucleus, which is the atomic number. Electrons are equal in number to protons in a neutral atom.
