Most definitely, yes. I have plenty of projects where there's enough JS interacting with the DOM to use jQuery, but too little to justify adding the entire React package. Furthermore, a number of my projects 1) might have to be taken over someday by developers who don't know React, 2) might eventually have jQuery added anyways for a quick plugin (slideshow, etc.), or 3) have jQuery included already because the client insists on the use of a particular CMS.
