Pretty much yes. Every 3-bet range facing a single opponent is based on how many players are left to act and the range the RFI player is playing. Given that 90% of the players are positionally aware (i.e. open progressively more hands in later positions), and the number of players left to act decreases you can in turn also open up a bit in those situations.

I would highly recommend taking the time to memorise or at least approximate your baseline 3-bet strategy for the most important situations. Start with something like SB vs BU RFI, BU vs CO RFI because those are the positions that occur most frequently. After that study LP vs MP RFI, LP vs EP RFI etc. You don't really need to go any deeper than that because the difference in range facing UTG RFI or HJ RFI is something like two or three combo's that are already (almost) indifferent between 3-betting or folding. Of course, if you want to go deeper by all means but it's probably not worth it given the time investment.

EDIT: Learning a theoretically sound baseline strategy also improves your exploitative play because you know which hands are edge cases where you can either over-fold against nitty players, or open up against loose players.
