Yes.

The "indicator" is a backslash \ between the placeholders.  
For details see [Rename Files – Mp3tag Documentation](https://docs.mp3tag.de/converters/rename-files/)  
and the examples like  
`%artist%\%album% '['%year%']'\$num(%track%,2). %title%`  
which creates  
`Artist\Album [2010]\01. Title`
