It depends what is meant by greater, if you mean larger angle (nearer vertical) then the answer is no; if you mean smaller (nearer horizontal) then the answer is yes.
Because the axis of spin of Earth is inclined at about 23.5 degrees to the plane in which it orbits the sun then the apparent height of the midday sun and thus the angle of the sun's rays moves through 47 degrees between mid summer and mid winter. In mid winter the sun is at its lowest elevation.
