Yes, the pattern(s) are moveable as the intervalic relationships between each degree of the scale remain the same.


G Minor Pentatonic A Minor Pentatonic

E--3------6--- E-----5------8------
B--3------6--- B-----5------8------
G--3----5----- G-----5----7--------
D--3----5----- D-----5----7--------
A--3----5----- A-----5----7--------
E--3------6--- E-----5-------8-----
