Yes, once you have your full licence you are able to drive either a manual or automatic vehicle.

As an aside, if you pass your restriced in a manual you can also drive an automatic during the restricted period.

If however, you sit and pass your resticted in an automatic vehicle then you must only drive an automatic during your restricted period (unless accompanied by a supervisor). This is stated on the restricted licence.
