Hi.

If the programs were installed with the OS or later with apt or apt-get or the GUI package manager, then yes if you run

sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade

any updates available in the repositories will be applied to all installed programs.

If you are running Raspbian Buster, and the caveats in above apply, then yes:
