Yes and no. I had a front bearing go on me (could hear the low rotational noises when driving), but when I jacked her up and played with the wheel (push/pull top/bottom and side to side, AND rotated the wheel) I heard/felt
nothing unusual at all. But when I replaced the bearing, the noise while driving was gone, confirming the diagnosis. Whether or not you can hear it when the car is jacked up, I'm sure, depends on how far gone the bearing is.
