Yup, if CPS felt it was in the public interest to do so.

Pled not guilty up until the morning of the trial when changed plea to guilty and received lesser sentences.
Not much of a lesser sentence, I imagine. Magistrates' guidance on the issue suggests a reduction of perhaps 5%-10% for a guilty plea "at the door of the court" on trial day. The prosecution would also ask for their full trial costs as they would have prepared the matter for trial.1
