Yes. You have access to both the official, proprietary Nvidia drivers (difficult to improve or configure but best for gaming), and the open source "Nouveau" drivers (which I would consider more "Works for Tails and for a full FOSS ecosystem", but horrible for games).

No need to visit Nvidia's website either - you should have 3rd party driver installers built into your distro (and can upgrade/downgrade as needed).
