Yes. See Policy 7.3 (you should probably (re-)read the Policy ;)

It's recommended practice to keep the .orig.tar.gz pristine, i.e. the
same as upstream (so you can verify md5sums), if possible. There are
circumstances when the tarball can't be kept pristine, e.g. when it
contains non-DFSG-free parts. If that's not the case, you should
include changes in the .diff.gz, either directly or using a system
such as dpatch or CDBS's simple-patchsys.mk.
