Yes, of course. He may have less need for the Enabling Act, or would abolish electoral politics in a different fashion, but in such a scenario wherein he's popular enough to win the 1932 presidential election, he would've just been able to rule through Article 48 for life; moreover, the Nazis would probably still be the largest party in the Reichstag, so Hitler could just appoint a Nazi chancellor that would do whatever he wants.

A Hitler win in 1932 would've been difficult to pull off, though, as Hindenburg was a popular war hero with the general public who also had the support of the Weimar coalition parties. Without something crazy happening (say, Hindenburg being assassinated during the campaign), Hitler outright winning the presidency would've been pretty difficult to pull off.
