Yes, yolk and egg white are the two main parts of a raw egg. The egg white is also called "albumen," but this is more of a biology term and you would generally refer to it as "egg white" or "egg whites" in the context of food or cooking.

In ordinary speech, once it's clear that the subject is eggs, "the yolk" and "the white." If eggs haven't been mentioned, then "egg yolk" and "egg white." Examples: "First crack the eggs, then separate the whites from the yolks." "A meringue is made from sugar and egg whites." "Egg yolk is nutritious, but high in fat."
