Yes, but I strongly recommend that you organize your picture files first and make sure they're named the way you want them to be.
It's easier to relink when they're moved. Difficult to relink when they're renamed - that has to be done manually by you. NEVER have two files with the same file name, even if they're in different folders... BAD practice. Legacy will pick the first one it finds.
