Yes, indeed. ECC RAM is better than non-ECC RAM, also for ZFS.
The myth, popularized by a notorious thread on the TrueNAS forums [1], is specifically that ZFS requires ECC RAM, and will do worse than other filesystems without it, because scrubbing will multiply a single bitflip into a failed pool.
A ZFS core developer says that that isn't the case [2]. Here's some more reasoning [3], also about many other myths.
