Yes, but not 100% trustworthy. When EAC tries to correct an error by
doing re-reads, sometimes the error pattern will be repeateable, so
even though "no errors" is reported, you'll still end up with files that
have errors (this happens even with best CD drives, less frequently though).
Most of the time those errors are completely inaudible, but sometimes
they are not.
The best method I've found is to rip at least twice and compare CRCs.
(In EAC you can use test&copy feature).
