Christmas is a Christian holiday, and since the overwhelming majority of Europeans are Christian, then yes. However, depending on your denomination of Christianity, the date of Christmas will be different.

Catholics and Protestants celebrate Christmas according to the modern day Gregorian Calendar, which Christmas lies on 25th December.

Orthodox Christians celebrate Christmas according to the Julian Calendar, which preceded the Gregorian, where Christmas (25th December) in the Julian calendar lies on or near 7th January in the Gregorian calendar.
