Yeah definitely. The only advantage to squatting deeper is if you go past parallel, most of the tension moves to your hams and glutes for the bottom of the motion, so you get the extra activation (rather than mostly quad if you're squatting parallel or higher).

I don't really care though. It's easy enough to hit glutes + hams separately.
