In my opinion, yes.
But I know there are those who make the same argument for Buster Keaton, who took far better advantage of the movie medium than Chaplin did. (Most Chaplin bits could basically be re-created on stage - almost none of Keaton's could, with trains, ships and falling houses...)
However, Chaplin was a phenomenal success, one of the first movie stars, helped transfer power to the performers, was consistently funny and inventive, and produced films of unparalleled humor and humanity. There'll never be another like him.
