Answer

Yes (example below)

Work Step by Step

We can certainly write equations in point slope form in slope intercept form. Consider the equation y-1=2(x-1). We first distribute the 2 to simplify the equation to y-1=2x-2. We add 1 to both sides to get that $y=2x-1$. This equation is in slope intercept form.
