Absolutely. The catcher can leave the box after the pitch is released, but not before. Good clarification, SamNVa.

In a similar vein, I can't count the number of times I've had to wave my arms and scream, "Time out!" when, after a play, the batter gets in the box and the pitcher starts her motion while I'm still returning to my position after the previous play. Sometimes they just don't notice that you're not behind the plate. Even with the better players, you have to watch for everything.
