Yes it is, and since it's IP based, it's even easier if you are for example working from an office and there are multiple people using google.

But that is why they only show recaptcha, you fill it in and you will get extemption cookie for 30 more requests :D

Does that actually work? Whenever I have been searching some obscure things and managed to get the captcha after 6-10 pages, it just goes to loop where it keeps giving it constantly. Though it stops giving it if I change the search terms.

With a VPN on Brave on iOS, Google will only show me infinite captchas.
