Yes. Combining aeration with seeding is an excellent idea. Aeration loosens up the soil, giving new plant roots "room to grow". This applies to overseeding existing turf or planting new grass.

An application of fertilizer, along with heavy watering just after aeration, will greatly stimulate root growth. Deep watering every two or three days, for a few weeks after aerating, will cause the roots to grow deeper for increased strength during dry times.

For most grasses, the very best time is just prior to, or early in the fast growing season. However, cool-climate grasses like Bluegrass or Fescue, can be aerated in the early spring or fall, while warm-climate grasses like Bermuda or Zoysia need to be done in mid-spring to early summer.
