Yes. pdf2cad converts to .dxf, the industry-standard CAD exchange format. You can open a DXF file in AutoCAD for viewing and editing. When you save it, you can do so in AutoCADs native DWG file format. This will also make the file size a lot smaller compared to the DXF version, which as an exchange format can become quite large.
