Yes, I think so.

Most distros using rpm to install or uninstall packages and this
packagemanager works much better then the install / uninstallroutines on
windowssystems. Also on debian, that uses apt and the own .deb-format,
installing and removing packages is much better handled than in windows.

But if you installing packages on your own and your not using a
packagemanager, it depends on the makefile of the programm if you can
remove all installed things...
