Did the Union win the battle in the Shenandoah Valley late in the US Civil War?

Yes, as General Philip Henry Sheridan defeated the Confederate army here. This helped Lincoln get reelected in 1864. I would like to improve the answer as follows: Gen. Sheridan won the decisive, pivotal battle of Cedar Creek which led to the definitive control of Shenandoah Valley by the Union. Indeed in the Valley no battle called "the Battle of Shenandoah" was fought during the Civil War. Several campaigns were instead carried out there and each one was marked out with a number of battles, some of which of high strategic importance.
