Yes.

Proof (by ttt2 @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Dependency Pair Transformation

The following set of initial dependency pairs has been identified.
a#(x1) b#(x1) (4)
a#(x1) b#(b(x1)) (5)
b#(b(c(x1))) a#(x1) (6)
b#(b(c(x1))) c#(a(x1)) (7)
b#(b(c(x1))) b#(c(a(x1))) (8)
b#(b(c(x1))) c#(b(c(a(x1)))) (9)

1.1 Dependency Graph Processor

The dependency pairs are split into 1 component.
