Yes of course, truth is not bound by our understandings and our knowledge. And the key word here, defined. To say all truth is defined by knowledge presents a limited and ego-centric understanding of truth, ignoring that truth is not shaped by knowledge, but rather our knowledge SHOULD be defined by truth, and knowledge continually shaped as we gain a greater understanding of truth. And if anyone says "what about knowledge outside our understanding", all i can say is knowledge not known by us is NOT knowledge, it is mystery.

As I eat my lunch, I philosophise. And what I philosophise, I blog. What I blog, you read. What you read, you digest. Therefore, we are both digesting - I, my sandwich, and you, my philosophies.
