The answer to this question, from our perspective is maybe.
In life the only thing as individuals we absolutely are aware of is that we exist. Whenever you are conscious you are looking through your eyes. Now beyond this everything is layers of experience and arguments of reliability based on repeated experiments, and even being conscious is an assumption.
Now in this world you can propose there is absolute truth out there, exterior to ourselves but because we are limited in our experience everything has to be described by how we came to that conclusion.
For me an interesting concept is morality. The closer you come to purity and love, the clearer you see what matters and what does not. But that means morality is bounded by where you stand, how you construct your life.
So the whole of reality is subjective to the creator, because without Him nothing would exist. So in that regard He defines absolute truth, because there is no other reference point in eternity.
We like certainty though, knowing is this thing safe or not, how does it work, like this or that. In this practical world of getting by, there is absolute truth. The lawn mower only works if the electricity is switched on. Now that is absolute truth in its relative state of what an electric lawn mower is, but we like the term absolute because it reassures us we have have got it right though it is really an exaguration.
