Yes, pronouns function the same as nouns in a sentence; as the subject of a sentence or a clause, and as the object of a verb or a preposition.
Examples:
Mom made cookies for the children.
She made cookies for the children. (subject of the sentence)
The cookies that she made are for the children. (subject of the relative clause)
Mom made them for the children. (direct object of the verb 'made')
Mom made cookies for them. (object of the preposition 'for')
