Yes.
Charge the battery well and then test battery and alternator. Your symptoms could be a weak or dying battery (probably due to a bad alternator).
Battery test. Engine off, headlights on for one minute. Voltage across battery terminals should be 12 to 12.5.
Alternator test. Engine running, voltage across battery terminals should be 14 to 14.5.
