Is $C _v=Tleft(frac{partial S}{partial T}right)_{V}$ true irrespective of reversibility of the process?

Without specifying if the process is reversible or not my textbook uses the relation$C_{V}=left(frac{partial Q}{partial T}right)_{V}=Tleft(frac{partial S}{partial T}right)_{V}$Is this equation true irrespective of reversibility of the process? If...
