Yes, in all key tourist areas. You will have strong 4G coverage for hiking Little Adam's Peak in Ella and in the town of Nuwara Eliya. For safaris, you will have a good signal at the entrances to Yala and Udawalawe National Parks and at the main lodges. The signal may drop when you are deep inside the park, but it's perfect for connecting as soon as your safari is finished.
