Yes, with limitations that you should be aware of:

• recordings only available from the app (not my.arlo.com)
• recordings only available using the primary account (not friend accounts)
• No ability to make manual recordings or take snapshots
• no thumbnails - videos need to be downloaded to the phone to view
• remote access requires router setting changes that some find difficult, and which don't work with all internet service providers

Of course you also lose other subscription features (activity zones when on battery power, smart notifications, etc).

In addition to @StephenB comments, the vmb4500 Base station does not support remote access, but will store the triggered recordings to the USB which can only be removed and the videos viewed on a pc.
