yes,as our dear little Alessandro Volta proves so.

(Dr Strong) Yes it is. The reason why is because salt (NaCl) dissociates into its two components, sodium Na and chloride Cl-. The chloride is more electronegative than the sodium and steals one of its electrons to become a negative ion. The sodium then is a positive ion. These charged ions can diffuse in different directions to conduct an electric current.

Pure water is ionized only to a very small degree and therefore is a poor conductor.
