Yes it is. 
Unlike ltspice eagle is inferior to gschem in many relevant ways. Most 
notably it's GUI is a real PITA, in particular to newbies. Thus such an 
advice probably would not help the OP with his project. 

Unfortunately, the opposite is true for gschem/gnucap vs ltspice. If you 
suggest otherwise to the inexperienced newbie, he or she will find out 
the hard way and never come back.
