Short answer: yes. Lucifer was originally the most powerful archangel of all but he rebelled and his name was changed to Satan. Long answer: The word lucifer is not a name of any evil entity. It simply means bright light, or an ancient name of planet Venus. The mix up is from the book of Isaiah regarding a prophecy toward a king of Babylon where the writer calls the king a bright shining light( lucifer). Ancient kings were often thought of to be gods. Their people's attitudes were: my god can beat up your god. This particular Babylonian god-king apparently rose himself above the Hebrew people's God. Isaiah warned that such nonsense would not be tolerated by God- that the Babylonian king along with his kingdom would be toppled by the Hebrew's true God.
