Yes. Having a zero as the last number in a figure with a decimal part to it does not change anything.

Except that the first expression implies that the value is accurate to 0.01 km while the second is accurate to 0.1 km. This means that the first could be any value between 2.595 km and 2.605 km whereas the second lies between 2.55 km and 2.65 km.
