Yes, you just move the same interconnected shapes up & down the fretboard as necessary to change keys. This is one of the great things about the guitar: the ability to transpose standard patterns. Just like all chord shapes. Or all scale shapes.

I cover the concept & application of pentatonic scales in this tutorial.
