Yes? I don't know what else you would want to do to an old chain but clean it, lube it, and ride it.
Sometimes, the more you try to clean up an old chain, the worse it gets. if you disassemble the links you can deform the plates, if you wire wheel it you remove the rust that's holding it together.
I will wire wheel 'em if needed and soak em in diesel fuel (although i hear trans fluid and acetone in equal parts works better) blow em off with a air hose and apply a good amount of your favorite chain lubricant. NOT motor oil.....
