Yes, and your cake will be better for you when you're done! You can use margarine, but butter is better.
Just don't use whipped butter or low calorie butter because they work in some water to dilute the butter so it has less calories. But cooking with that stuff is not cool, because you're adding extra water and not as much shortening, and your cake flops.
