Hi Kelsey...they certainly can snore...some more than others. Flat faced cats are more prone to snoring as well.
Here's a short excerpt taken from catsplay.com:

Do Cats Snore?
Most of us will readily admit to being woken up in the middle of the night by our husband's (or wife's) imitation of an oncoming locomotive, but by our cat's snoring? You don't mean that delicate little creature peacefully grooming herself on your bed right now? Alas, a new study conducted at the Mayo Clinic has found out the terrible truth: Of the people who say they allow their pet to sleep in the bedroom with them at night, snoring was reported in 21 percent of dogs and (gasp!) 7 percent of cats.

My cat snores. I asked my vet if this was normal and he laughed and said "Yes - many cats snore." So, there it is! Its funny to hear cats snore, isn't it?

When my cat got older she began to have a quiet, little ladylike snore. It's cute.

It's very normal.. I have a cat that moans and grunts in her sleep. The first time my husband heard it he freaked out and woke me up, asking if I was feeling alright when all the time it was my cat by my head. If you are very concerned bring her to a vet or ask at her annual check up if your cat is alright. But I belive it is a normal thing.

No it is totally normal if you can breath in air you can snore.

It's normal. They're probably happy and heavily purring. Don't worry.

She's tired, yes normal, not to worry. She obviously feels safe in her home to sleep that well.
