Yes. It is the measures of the three sides that need to be equal not simply the numbers in different units.

So a triangle of with sides of 1 yard, 3 feet and 36 inches would be equilateral even though the 3 numbers are different.

The answer below is incorrect. These measures can't form a triangle at all.

8 feet, 8 centimeters, and 8 inches are all different lengths. If all lengths are converted into centimeters, the sides measure 243.84 centimeters, 8 centimeters, and 20.32 centimeters. These measures do not meet the requirement that the sum of any two lengths of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third triangle. Therefore, there can be no triangle with sides measuring 8 feet, 8 centimeters, and 8 inches.
