Yes, any type of energy can be expressed in joules. In practice, other energy units are sometimes used, for example calories for heat energy and food energy (this is gradually being replaced by the joule), and eV (electron-volt) for the energy of subatomic particles. But it is always possible to express such energies in joules.
