Yes.
And even though you asked for Y/N I need rep, so here you go.
ROBLOX characters have control of all of the parts in their character, on the client side. This means that if they move the parts on the client, it is replicated to the server, which is replicated to all clients.
Yes. Animations played on the client are automatically replicated (meaning the server and other players will see the animation), but there's a gotcha. If you load the animation on the humanoid before the Animator is instantiated, animations don't replicate. It's recommended that you wait for the Animator and load animations on it directly, as Humanoid:LoadAnimation() is deprecated and suffers the aforementioned issue.
local Animator = Humanoid:WaitForChild('Animator')
local AnimationTrack = Animator:LoadAnimation(Animation)
