Yes, it can be an intake leak check all hoses and the intake manifold. It can also be the 02 sensors HEGO (heated exhaust gas oxygen). Have it read for codes, even if the check engine light is NOT on the computer will have stored information and codes. Discount auto stores will read codes for no fee. write them down.
