Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Continents is constantly moving, but at very slow rate.

This is due to the movement of the tectonic plate underneath the earth surface.

On average they move about 10 cm per year.

So in 100 million, they will move 10,000 km.

Of course, how the continents looks 100 million years from now will be very different than today.
