The short answer is yes. The long answer is that God spoke to Israel in Jeremiah 29:11 to comfort them and remind them that he never forsakes his people despite the fact that they were currently facing great judgement. Principally speaking, God has a foreordained plan for his people, and will not forsake them. So this verse applies to us, even though it wasn't spoken to us, because it is directly addressing and dependant upon God's character and attributes, which makes it always true as He is always true. The immediate context of a passage is vitally important to a sound understanding of what it means. But how a passage applies to us goes beyond just the direct meaning of the verse and looks at the underlying truths of that verse. Context however can also make a passage much more vibrant and impactful. The context of the desperate, sinful state of Israel found in the book of Jeremiah makes God's promise to his people so much more impactful because it means that when WE screw up our own lives and have to deal with the physical consequences, God is EVEN THEN caring for us and using our failures to edify us.
