Welcome to the board, bro! To answer your question, yes! I'm 28 and still have patchy growth. There are some guys older than us that have it as well. The good thing is your growth is good for your age and the amount of time. Your goatee and stache look strong. Give yourself a goal of 3 months of growth. Your young and your beard will continue to mature into your 20's, 30's, and even 40's. Keep us posted with your progress, cantgrowhair.
