Technically yes because you are going to use the outer orbital lane and they are using the inner orbital lane

If there is only one exit lane to the roundabout then the other car is going to need to change lanes/merge to take that exit and you have now blocked it.
You must yield to them as they joined before you. If they were taking a different exit (after you) then you could join as your paths would not cross.
