Bonjour Diana,
It depends on what you're trying to say. When you mean "to come from" or "to have just done something," yes.
I'm coming from a restaurant - Je viens d'un restaurant.
I just ate - Je viens de manger.

But in other contexts, you could simply use "venir" on its own:
I'm coming to see you - Je viens te voir.
He's coming to my house - Il vient chez moi.
etc...
