Yes. When a role is installed, any dependencies are automatically installed as well (from https://galaxy.ansible.com/docs/using/installing.html#dependencies). Running playbooks (i.e. deploying infrastructure) does not magically pull in remote content. So with ansible-galaxy you make sure all the roles etc are in place. And then you playbooks can use them.
