I think so. All of the instructions say to click on "Device," then on "Install Guest Additions." After that, a CD image appears on the desktop, and when I click on it, I see that it contains all of the files that are necessary to install the guest solutions. But all of the tutorials I've found all say the same thing: after that desktop image appears, open a terminal and type in those commands exactly as written.
