Yes. The lips start the air column vibrating, and the vibrating air column causes the lips to vibrate. It's a feedback thing, like plucking a string and holding your axe next to the amplifier. The two main parameters we can play with involve with air pressure are air velocity and air volume. Play with these.
Have fun!
