Usually, yes.
If the growth zone of the nail (slightly behind the cuticle) is basically OK, the nail will grow back, but it can take almost a full year before it's reached normal size and shape again.
If the biter has managed to damage the growth zone growth zone - tricky, but possible - then the nail might come back deformed.
Thicker, cloudy, wavy or anything like that.
It may eventually return to normal, or it may always be strange.

But even if everything is OK, it can take some months before you see it at all, and a full year for complete replacement.
