Quite why you'd WANT to change to something longer and more
complicated is beyond me, but yes:
https://support.google.com/mail/answer/159001?hl=en
"You can only have one Google email address, but mail sent to either
address (@gmail.com or @googlemail.com) will be delivered to you. You
can also set up a custom 'From' address if you want to send mail as
your old @googlemail.com address."
