This isn't really a hard question to answer - the answer is yes- but it gets complicated in the context of theories of self.https://twitter.com/AnthropObscene/status/1290416248254337024 …

I think if I'd been raised a boy I'd have gone with it happily, and being raised as a girl I went with it too. When puberty hit and it was the worst thing in the world and I never recovered, but I felt a bit better when I wore clothing from the men's section. That's all I knew.
I never connected having more friends, fewer suicidal thoughts, and getting better grades when I wore men's clothing with my gender. No therapist ever asked me about it. It was tolerated, but gently discouraged as immature or attention seeking.

So, you know, looking back it does feel like that was obviously gender dysphoria, and transitioning would have helped as much then as it did later. But you can't really prove it without going back in time.
