Yes

Explanation:

While most calculus students will likely be familiar with functions that are continuous but not differentiable at specific points (e.g. #f(x) = |x|# is continuous but not differentiable at #x=0#), there are also functions which have that property over larger domains. For example, the Weierstrass function is continuous on all of #RR#, but is not differentiable at any point.
