Correct.

And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the book and to break its seals?" ³And no one in heaven, or on the earth, or under the earth, was able to open the book, or to look into it. ⁴And I began to weep greatly, because no one was found worthy to open the book, or to look into it; ⁵and one of the elders said to me, "Stop weeping; behold, the Lion that is from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome so as to open the book and its seven seals." Revelation 5:2-5 (NAS)

The Lamb: the Lion of Judah, the root of David:

"And I saw between the throne (with the four living creatures) and the elders a Lamb standing, as if slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth.  ⁷And He came, and He took it (the book) out of the right hand of Him who sat on the throne.  ⁸And when He had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, having each one a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.  ⁹And they sang a new song, saying, "Worthy art Thou to take the book, and to break its seals; for Thou wast slain, and didst purchase for God with Thy blood men from every tribe and tongue and people and nation.  ¹⁰And Thou hast made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God; and they will reign upon the earth."  Revelation 5:6-10  (NAS)

The Book:  Jesus takes the book or scroll from the One who sits on the throne:

At this point in the vision, we are not told what the book or scroll contains.  All we know is that the book is sealed up with seven seals...and that Jesus (the Lamb) is the only one worthy to open the book.  Jesus takes the book from the one who sits on the throne.

And He came, and He took it (the book) out of the right hand of Him who sat on the throne.  ⁸And when He had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, having each one a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. Revelation 5:7-8 (NAS)
