Javascript Cookies - Can they be accessed by a server side scripting language, visa versa?

I am learning Javascript and have been a back-end Web Developer for 25 years. MY question is quite simple; can you access a cookie set by Javascript with a server side scripting language, such as PHP, visa versa?

Thank you,
