Yes. This is correct. For example
shell> tree roles
roles
└── role01
├── defaults
│ └── main.yml
└── tasks
└── main.yml
3 directories, 2 files
shell> cat roles/role01/defaults/main.yml
test_var: Hello
shell> cat roles/role01/tasks/main.yml
- debug:
var: test_var
shell> cat playbook.yml
- hosts: localhost
roles:
- role01
shell> ansible-playbook playbook.yml
gives (abridged)
TASK [role01 : debug]
**********************************
ok: [localhost] =>
test_var: Hello
