Yes; by the definition of an irrational number (a number with an infinite amount of changing decimal digits as the number grows minutely larger), the converse is true about rational numbers

a rational number like (1/3) [0.33333333...] can be notated with a bar over any of the digits to notate a repeating decimal digit.
