Yes this could be the starter. You can try tapping on the side of it and see if this gets it to turn over. If it does then the solenoid is sticking. Even if it doesn't it is still likely the starter. Here is a guide that will help with this:

I suspect the starter will need replaced so here is a guide that will help. Along with the additional info below which will help with this. Please let us know if you need more info. Thanks
