Yes.

The primary reason most FLOSS is distributed gratis, is because FLOSS 
licenses don't prohibit one from giving away the program, provided 
source code is also included.
That same non-prohibition is why it is not uncommon to find FLOSS that 
has been re-labelled, and sold in the same price range as the non-FLOSS 
competitor.
