Yes. I don't know how one could finish Dune and not know this, since it's basically stated outright when Paul and Chani have the same conversation he dreamt about earlier in the book.

Well, I don't recall Paul and chani having a conversation in the first book, unless you are talking about the dune series in totality.

Unless I'm misremembering Chani's name (I am talking about the Fremen girl to whom Jessica says "history will remember us as wives), this definitely happens in the first book - multiple times, but I'm thinking of a particular time when she asks what it was like coming from a planet with so much water.
