Yes. As the earth rotates from east to west, the pull of the gravity of the moon (which causes tides), moves across the earth from east to west.

Why do tides occur twice a day?
During any 24 hour period, the moon nearly completes one revolution around earth [apparent motion, not true motion]. Combined tidal forces cause a bulge in the earth's water at the location roughly below the moon and also at the part of the earth opposite that location. A scarcity of water occurs in the places roughly at 90 degrees to those locations. So as the earth moves through a day, it 'passes under' two high tides and two low tides.
