Not really.

I have seen people who claimed to successfully use anki for physics and math. And it turns out, they used it as a problem prompt. Like random question -> solve it -> next random question. Which is just not a good use of anki. Like you can just use a random number generator to randomly pick a problem in your textbook in that case. Not to mention which problems should go into your anki deck? In most cases there are too many problems from your homework, old exams, textbooks, problem books related to your course. Do you even have time to do all those multiple times (like through SRS algo), if you put everything on anki? If not everything, how to pick them then?

Anki is also just not a good tool to memorize sequential information and lists, like theorems and such. Which there are a lot of them in math and physics. Of course if you ask anki community, they will just recommend a shitty plugin for that.

Don’t get me wrong, i think you need to know the theorems, lemma, etc. ice cold, and know how to apply them to typical problems. But that’s something that ideally learned through solving problems. Not delusional shortcut like anki. Again, not good for sequential thing like proofs and such.

If you want to use anki, my suggestion is to use it as a deck of mistakes and tricks. In math a lot of times the issue is you just don’t know a typical “trick” to solve the problem. If you can’t memorize that, then putting it into the deck is probably not a bad idea. Same with mistakes, if you keep making the same mistakes, put it into anki. You can then regularly review your anki deck. Again, anki is not necessary here, you can just write these “tricks” and mistakes into a notebook, and tally them every time you miss them, and review them regularly.

Also you need to know the default 21 days threshold of anki algo. Again, if you ask the anki community, they will just recommend other shitty plugin.
