If by personality you mean individual-level differences in behavior, yes, definitely. (It’s old now but it holds up)
I mean, it’d be odd if there was variation like there is in all organisms but it somehow didn’t extend to the brain.
Even wilder, because of the semi-decentralised way an octopus’s central nervous system is set up, it’s been suggested each tentacle might have a personality of it’s own, on top of the octopus’s!

That surprised me about octopuses. They’re really cool animals.
