Yes, here when thread is in synchronized method it must be holding lock on object’s monitor and using that lock thread can enter other synchronized method.
Program >
class MyRunnable1 implements Runnable{
@Override
public void run(){
method1();
}
synchronized void method1(){
System.out.println("synchronized method1() started");
method2();
System.out.println("synchronized method1() ended");
}
synchronized void method2(){
System.out.println("in synchronized method2()");
}
}

public class MyClass {
public static void main(String args[]) throws InterruptedException{
MyRunnable1 myRunnable1=new MyRunnable1();
Thread thread1=new Thread(myRunnable1,"Thread-1");
thread1.start();
}
}
/*OUTPUT
synchronized method1() started
in synchronized method2()
synchronized method1() ended
*/

If you note output, when thread was in synchronized method1() it was holding lock on object’s monitor and using that lock thread entered synchronized method2().
