Yep.

Sounds like it would be easier to just get the sockets if I can find them...

It depends on your application. Sockets need a lot of extra space, these pins do not. There are some pin variants that can be lowered into a hole so that the tube's glass envelope can almost be in direct contact with the upper PCB surface. This is a real space saver.

    The socket pins removed from standard D connectors will fit most
    tubes
    if you have the patience to solder them individually to the PCB.
