Yes. But they were extremely prone to mechanical failure, easily stuck in the ubiquitous mud, and vulnerable to even the lightest anti-tank guns, even small artillery pieces which could be carried forward by hand, such as the one-pounder or 37MM. Most WWI tanks had only enough armor to stop machine gun bullets, which was a big advantage in maneuvering to get its own machine guns to bear on the enemy. Or they could just run over people. But being a tanker was very dangerous.
