Short answer: yes. Lucifer was originally the most powerful archangel of all but he rebelled and his name was changed to Satan. Long answer: The word lucifer is not a name of any evil entity. It simply means bright light, or an ancient name of planet Venus. The mix up is from the book of Isaiah regarding a prophecy toward a king of Babylon where the writer calls the king a bright shining light( lucifer). Ancient kings were often thought of to be gods. Their people's attitudes were: my god can beat up your god. This particular Babylonian god-king apparently rose himself above the Hebrew people's God. Isaiah warned that such nonsense would not be tolerated by God- that the Babylonian king along with his kingdom would be toppled by the Hebrew's true God.

Angels are supposedly spiritual and therefore without a physical appearance, yet Satan (sometimes referred to as Lucifer) is sometimes called the most beautiful angel and the master of music in heaven. Many Christians believe he was vain and, because of this, wanted to be worshipped like God. If an angel could be so foolishly vain it suggests a flaw in God's creation of them, or that the angels in heaven were unaware of the omnipotence that humans commonly attribute to God. I say "commonly attribute" because sometimes God seems to have less than absolute power, as we see in Revelation 12:7-9, where Satan could only be defeated by Michael and his angels, and only after a war between opposing sides: And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

"Lucifer" refers to a human, not to a spirit creature. (Isaiah 14:4, 15, 16) The only one called "Archangel" in The Bible is named Michael. (Jude 9)
