Yes. In Judaism, there is no distinction between a "Jew by birth" and a "Jew by conversion"; they are both inheritors of the Tradition and have equal religious rights, permissions, and responsibilities.

However, the validity of the conversion might be called into question if the conversion did not follow Torah law. This is primarily a concern for those who convert to Judaism with a Reform Jewish Rabbi. Often, for example, such a convert, if male, will not undergo circumcision (or the drawing of a drop of blood if already circumcised), which renders the conversion incomplete and ineffective from an Orthodox perspective.
