Yes. Unlike the first and second stimulus payments that limited payments to qualifying children under 17, families will get a payment for all eligible dependents claimed on a tax return.

the stimulus payment for dependents goes to the taxpayer.... whether they give it to you is between you and and your parents. Technically it is theirs' not yours'.
