Yes, but remember they are very different telescopes for different types of astronomy. Roman is a survey telescope with a wide field of view, designed to discover new objects, etc. JWST has a large aperture and narrow FOV to get the closest look possible at specific targets identified in advance. They will compliment each other well.

Regrettable English nit: "complement", not "compliment".
