Yes kinda, no kinda.

When you think about it we (fairly obviously in my opinion) cannot actually sense the real world directly as our eyes, ears, hands etc. are effectively only dumb sensors so it our brains that must indirectly observe reality so our reality is really in our heads (that's why yes and no).
