If by "social issues", you mean things like gay marriage, not things like social security, then yes. However, there's differing opinions on abortion. All libertarians are opposed to government funding for abortion (with most considering it a separate issue than government funding in general), but we differ on whether it should be legal at all, or under what circumstances. Also, there are different kinds of libertarians, some of which are more socially liberal/fiscally conservative than others. Libertarian socialists, for instance, would not be fiscally conservative.

: I should add that most of the time, when we say "libertarian", we're talking about right-wing libertarians, who are in fact fiscally conservative. Libertarian (should have small l but it starts a sentence) socialists are essentially "voluntary socialists", so to speak. They believe socialism should happen not because the government says so but because the people say so and do it voluntarily. Big-L Libertarianism refers specifically to the Libertarian Party, who is fiscally conservative and socially liberal. However, in 2008 they nominated Bob Barr for President, and he was pretty socially conservative - he supported DOMA and the War on Drugs. But a lot of us weren't happy about that.
