For problems that aren't overly concerned with performance/memory, yes. You should probably reach for threads as a default, unless you know a priori that your problem is not in this common bucket.
Unfortunately there is quite a lot of bookkeeping overhead in the kernel for threads, and context switches are fairly expensive, so in a number of high performance scenarios we may not be able to afford kernel threading
