Well in 343 lore sure. I still hold to Bungie's original humans are descendants of Forerunners lore, rather than all the retconning with the Forerunners for Forerunners (e.g. Precursors) and whatnot that occurred as part of the Halo 3 terminals, but yeah it would be since that's all we presently have to go off of in any official capacity.

Yeah there's a lot that 343 lore changed, especially since Bungie lived by rule of cool so 343 lore had to come up with justifications for certain things, like High Charity suddenly showing up at the Ark for no reason whatsoever.
