Hello,

Generally yes.

The format YYYMMDD uses year (YYY) expressed as (FourDigitYear - 1900). 

But that is equivalent to your understanding.

CYYMMDD

DD - day
MM - year
YY - year (2 digit)
C - century where 0 represents 20th century (years 1900...1999)
and 1 represents 21 centruy (2000...2099)

Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
