Yes. From the docs:
“BlockingQueue implementations are
thread-safe. All queuing methods
achieve their effects atomically using
internal locks or other forms of
concurrency control. However, the bulk
Collection operations addAll,
containsAll, retainAll and removeAll
are not necessarily performed
atomically unless specified otherwise
in an implementation. So it is
possible, for example, for addAll(c)
to fail (throwing an exception) after
adding only some of the elements in
c.”
