Yes.  But I advocate case sensitivity except for keywords.
Examples:

    //Step    exec  Pgm=FOOBAR
    //File     DD   *
    //         Dd   Dummy
    //FILE     Dd   Sysout=(,)

and

    //STEP    EXEC PGM=FooBar

EXEC (exec), PGM (Pgm), Dummy, SYSOUT, and DD (Dd) may be case insensitive.

STEP, Step, FILE, File, FOOBAR, and FooBar are taken as-is
and refer to different entities.

No, no, no! Case sensitivity is a nightmare! Allow
mixed case, sure, but not case sensitivity. No! No!

[In a later post, I'll let you know how I really feel :-) ]
