Kind of. Please see my earlier post on this thread.

If you have R1 connected to R3, R1 is in area 1 and R3 is in area 3,
they will have to form a Level 2 adjacency. However, you can put a
second NET value in the configuration of R3 to also make it a member of
area 1, and you can then make the R1 to R3 adjacency level 1. R3 can
then form a level 1 adjaency on another interface with a router in area
3. So the net result (from one perspective) is that R3 is in area 3, but
it forms a level 1 relationship with R1 in area 1.

Just trying to point out how things could be worded to confuse things on
this issue in the exam.

My understanding is if two routers are in two different areas, they must
use Level2.
