Yes. Exactly how depends on the suffix. For example, the word "cup" means a single object but if you add the suffix "s" it becomes "cups" which is more than one object. Suffixes also change the tense of verbs. They make the difference between "The band is playing your song" and "The band has played your song". Some suffixes change the part of speech a word is. The noun "fish" becomes the adjective "fishy". The verb "rebel" becomes the noun "rebellion". The adjective "slow" becomes the adverb "slowly".
