Probably yes.
Producers, such as plants, benefit from the activity of decomposers by breaking down dead organic matter and converting it into nutrients that can be taken up by the plants. This nutrient recycling allows the producers to grow and thrive, making them the first trophic level to benefit from decomposers.
Carbon is taken from atmosphere. It is the main source
In cellular respiration, organic molecules and oxygen are taken in to create carbon dioxide and water. In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water are taken in to create organic molecules and oxygen.
The gas taken in by photosynthesis is carbon dioxide (CO2), while the gas produced is oxygen (O2).
Carbon is found in carbon dioxide molecules, which are taken in by plants during the process of photosynthesis. The carbon from carbon dioxide is used to build organic molecules such as glucose, which store energy for the plant to use.
Organic phosphate moves through the food web by being taken up by plants from soil or water. Herbivores then consume these plants, transferring the phosphate up the food chain when they are eaten by carnivores. Decomposers break down the organic matter of dead organisms, releasing phosphate back into the soil to be taken up by plants again.
They can easily survive without any other organisms. So, as a group, they are producers, consumers and decomposers.
Producers use about 90 percent of the food energy they make during photosynthesis for their life processes.
Decomposers release the nutrients locked up in organic matter. As plants (and other producers) grow, they take up nutrients from the environment and turn it into biomass. Decomposers break down biomass and release the nutrients back into the environment where they can be taken up again by producers.

Carbon dioxide is converted into organic compounds, especially sugars, using the energy from sunlight and water.

Water is taken in and utilized by plants for photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis isn't taken in by anything. Photosynthesis is an act that plants go through to turn light energy into food.
In most current fertilzers Phosphate has been taken out. Usually it is only in there to encourage root develpment. Most fertilizers for established grass no longer have phosphate in them (and if they do it is a pretty small percentage). The only fertilizers out there where the phosphate percentage is still high are seed starting fertilizers.
