The short answer is YES. However if you are training for an outdoor run you should do a lot of your running outdoors in the elements (especially the wind) and on varying terrains. The upsides of training on a treadmill are that you can get a consistent pace/incline, weather and daylight won’t stop you from running, and there are no cars, dogs, etc… The downsides of treadmill training are boredom, overheating (no cooling breeze), lack of experience in dealing with difficult terrain and weather conditions, and in general it is probably not as challenging as running outdoors.
