Yes, and that's the way to do what you want.  See the example in the
manual:

        <http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.11.7/cvs_5.html#SEC62>

Another approach is to use update -p and overwrite the working file. 
For example:

        cvs up -p -rold_rev file.c >file.c

The first method is safer since it will preserve any local changes to
the working file.
