Yes and no. Torque occurs with whatever speed your thing is rotating.

Remember, internal combustion engines typically have maximum torque and
maximum horsepower at different speeds. IIRC, the maximum torque RPM is
lower than the maximum horsepower RPM.

Steam and electric motors have maximum torque and maximum horsepower at
different speeds as well, with one of the speeds being zero RPM.
