At a certain point, you will just spin your wheels with bodyweight exercises. You have to have progressive overload to get stronger and bigger. Some can do that with bodyweight exercises, some can't.
You can definitely progress faster and at a more efficient rate with weightlifting, but the answer is still "Yes, you can get stronger doing bodyweight exercises".1
