Absolutely. You can find this for even some of the most basic terms nowadays, like "feminist" and "liberal". Some people have extremely different ideas of what those 2 words mean.

For example, I consider myself both liberal and a feminist, but I take serious umbrage with many of the "radical feminists" and very far left leaning voices that have emerged out of these debates. Those same people would simply be considered just plain old feminists or liberals by some others, though.
