i would say yes
because in terms to makes things easier to say and be written down
for CO it is called carbon monoxide
thus for CO2 it is called carbon dioxide
the meaning of mono is 1 and the meaning for di is 2

The "O2" part of it is always dioxide.
for example, CO2 = carbon "dioxide"
I don't know if there are actually any exceptions to that rule. There could possibly be some compound that "breaks the rule," but I don't think so.
