Yes.  In fact, I'm fairly sure that this is exactly what it was written 
for in the first place.  Using it in place of su for general system 
administration is a later adaptation[1] of the command.  I'm presuming 
that you want certain users to have access to all of the regular 
commands plus a small subset of administrative commands.  If so, sudo is 
the best way to go.
