I a way, yes. The ChessBase GUI is the GUI used by all ChessBase programs, like
Fritz & DeepFritz, Junior, Hiarcs, Nimzo and so on.

So once you purchase Chess Tiger from ChessBase, the engine is going to run
inside this well known GUI (the product includes the engines and the GUI of
course).

There is only one way to have Tiger running inside this GUI: you must purchase
the ChessBase Chess Tiger product. If you have the Rebel 11 product or
ChessAssistant 6 product, it is not enough. You cannot just transfer the engines
into an existing Fritz GUI, it does not work.

I hope the matter is clear now.
