I think so though the language will probably have changed a bit by then. It wasn't so long ago for example that there was no J in the language so words starting with that letter had an I to start it instead. And look at Shakespeare for example. Words have changed meanings or spellings or both since he wrote his plays. That's not to mention words that don't yet exist because they aren't yet needed, and of course there is slang which though usually tied to a period of time can replace the conventional word on the street.
