Yes, though inside/outside is more important than right/left. Wear indicator pads go on the inside with the wear indicator strip on the bottom. Im pretty sure most outside pads are interchangeable between the left and right, but I just keep the l/r sets together out of the box.

If you had the inside and outside pads flipped, you might have binding issues since sometimes the inside pads have small pins or something on the back which don't allow the pad to sit flush with the caliper casting.
