Yes, one word in English can belogn to more than one part of speech. A single word can function as more than one part of speech, depending on how it's used in a sentence.
For example:
- I run every morning. (Verb)
- I went for a run. (Noun)
- I will work late today. (Verb)
- I am on my way to work. (Noun)
