Yes!

Work = Horsepower.
Work / Time = Power (i.e., 1 hp = 550 ft lbf / sec)

High torque, low HP engines just do a poor job of converting the torque into work at high RPMs.
They arent making torque at high rpm! Its not a matter of "converting" it. Torque gets "converted" in hp the same way everytime based on the often quoted formula.
