Yes though the term can be used to mean several different things.

The most common usage is for Europeans who traveled to other parts of the world and settled there. Most of the America's were settled by European settlers who then became part of whatever country they settled in.

The same is true for much of Australia and South Africa which were both territories of the British Empire and had many European settlers move there. European settlers have been colonizing and pushing out natives from their lands all over the globe for hundreds of years.

A less common usage of the term is for settlers going to Europe and establishing themselves there. They would be more correctly labeled "The settlers (or invaders) of Europe"; those cultures date back even further and include many attempts at settling Europe by vikings, romans, mongels and others.
