Yes.

Killer whale do at times eat fish, but they are known to eat seals because the seals' rubbery skin coating provides a lot of energy for the killer whale to survive for a couple of days. But in situations of desperation, such as if the killer whale ceases to find any seals for many days in a row, it must resort to fish.
