Absolutely: Braces actually cause the root of the tooth to move within the bone. Braces do not change the position of the root to the crown. So a tooth with a crown will move the exact same as a tooth without a crown.

Crown straightening: Braces can be used to straightening crowns. Modern adhesive cements can bond to porcelain, gold crowns, to attach orthodontic brackets that will be used to move the teeth.
