Yes as long as you stay in a compatible Domain "mode".

Hi Please

please check that if your domain mode is still windows 2000
and if it is still windows 2000 domain then you can add any domain
controller of windows 2000
and if is windows 2003 native then you can not add domain controller
having windows 2000 installed on it
