Yea, but you can use up to any number below five too if you have enough.
also you don't invest cards in different abilities, each card is it's own ability and you can have up to five of in your current ability set, with a total of 30 cards of 10 unique abilities (which means you can't have 10 different abilities with 5 points, but you can distribute those 30 points however you like)
