Yes.

Arthropods (from the Greek meaning jointed legs) have jointed legs, a body divided into several sections and an exoskeleton. Arthropods are animals of the Phylum Arthropoda, which includes insects, arachnids, myriapods (centipedes and millipedes), springtails, bristletails and crustaceans.

Insects have jointed legs and a body divided into three parts (head, thorax and abdomen) and an exoskeleton. Thus they are arthropods.
