yes.

Have a look at the Makefile for building the Tor Browser. If you are not
building nightlies then torsocks should get used. See:
https://gitweb.torproject.org/builders/tor-browser-bundle.git/blob/HEAD:/gitian/README.build
as well. Note: he master branch builds currently only nightlies and
alphas. If you want to start with building a stable Tor Browser use the
maint-4.0 branch.
