Yep! As per http://musicbrainz.org/doc/Style/Relationships :


   1. If the relationship is applicable to all tracks on a release, apply
   it to every work or recording on the release.
   2. If the relationship applies to only a few tracks, and you know which
   ones, apply it only to those works or recordings.
   3. If you are unsure which tracks a relationship applies to, put it at
   release level. A basic effort to determine to which tracks the relationship
   is applicable is appreciated.
   4. If the credit is release level, and does not apply on a track by
   track basis (e.g. graphic design for the album's cover), then apply the
   relationship to the release, not the tracks.
