Yes. And, Lutherans do not dogmatize how the real presence happens as do Roman Catholics in their doctrine of Transubstantiation. That presence is left a mystery and Jesus' words are taken at face value. "This BREAD is my BODY..." According to formal Lutheran doctrine, the bread is there and so with it is the true body of Christ. Roman Catholics say that the bread is not there and is referred to as an "accident." Martin Luther used the formula "in, with and under." The body and blood are received in, with and under the elements of bread and wine. Communion, in Lutheran ideology, is type/antitpe of the incarnation. The divine is made tangible just as happens in Jesus. He is God, but can be seen and touched and sensed in common, earthly form.

Of course not, that is why they are protestants. Protestant means a "church" that was formed to protest the Catholic Church and its beliefs.
