Of course. Partner may be on lead against who knows what, so you'd like a heart lead rather than a club. Besides, it may be your side's hand anyway! Nevertheless, North goes on with 3club and South ends the auction with 3NT.

You lead a low heart to the ten and king. Declarer crosses to spadeA for a finesse of diamond9. What do lead now when you have won with the jack?
