Answer:

Yes,

The oceanic lithosphere thickens as it ages and moves away from the mid-ocean ridge. ... As a result, the oceanic lithosphere is much younger than the continental lithosphere: the oldest oceanic lithosphere is about 170 million years old, while parts of the continental lithosphere are billions of years old.

I hope my answer help,

God blessed you
