Usually yes

A consulate is like a junior embassy. It's generally located in a busy tourist city, and takes care of tasks such as issuing visas. Embassies also perform this function, but have a much more significant role beyond the scope of just visas.

A country will typically have one embassy in every country, along with several consulates in different regions of that country.
