Yes, it is. With daylight spell it looks like this (see attached screenshot). But don't expect wonders, it quite old game.

I highly recommend it, it is masterpiece.

There is many different kinds of light sources in game, which will give different light radius. Candle, torch, oil lantern and many spells at least

With continued use of a torch it's light even diminishes over time until the torch is burnt out. You can make your own torches by combining sticks with oil, but I'd rather advise using the oil for a lantern, as it spends the brightest non-magical light (as far as I know).

Gigaquad's light patch found on this page makes the general light without a light source a bit brighter. Using torches and the like is still recommended tho.
