yes provided that power consumption is defined

Answer

AC voltages are expressed as root-mean-square values, which are exactly equivalent to the corresponding value of a DC voltage. So a, say, 120-V incandescent lamp would operate at exactly the same brightness whether connected to 120 V (AC) or 120 V (DC). So, there is no such thing as a 'DC light bulb'!
