Yes. When "can" is used as a verb, it remains "can" in the third person.
"Cans" should be only used when you want to use the noun "can" in the plural form.

El grupo de verbos modales (o verbos auxiliares) no reciben la "s" en la tercera persona (con la excepción de los verbos "to be" y "have" que sí varían).
I must, you must, he must.
I can, you can, he can.
I may, you may, he may.
I ought, you ought, he ought.
Pero,
I am, you are, he is.
I have, you have, he has.
