Grammatically, yes, but that doesn't mean much unless one understands it
exegetically. "I learn greek" is present continuous, but "I hit the ball"
can only be present instantaneous (or repeated).

Remember, participles denote kind of action, and there can be different
kinds of action in one tense.

Michael.
