Yes.: 175 cm for an 11 year old boy is way above 95th per centile. Please visit website, http://chartsgraphsdiagrams.Com/healthcharts/ and then you can select a chart for any age for boy or girl. Unless both parents are extremely tall, i would recommend to have your son examined by his primary care doctor or pediatric endocrinologist, because some syndromes are associated with very tall stature.
