What is it you need to renew?
Your licence is valid until your 70th birthday, only the photo expires after 10 years.
So the answer to what I think you’re asking is yes.0 -
You say 'renew' so I assume you have had it for around 10 years.
If you have a UK passport that has a more recent photo then they can simply use that photo on any online driving license renewal application (full or provisional) which means you don't have to send off a new pic - the gov.uk website claims that you will receive your renewal license in one week.
According to this site here https://www.gov.uk/driving-licence-fees
Its £14 to renew online (using existing passport photo) or £17 to apply by post including sending a new photo (take up to 3 weeks)
hope this helps0
