No. You need to upgrade your power supply wattage and possibly it's quality. An ideal power supply wattage is 650 and 850 watts for one or two 980 Ti's in a system respectively.

You also need to take into consideration the rest of your system, as that also uses a fair bit of power. NVIDA recommend a minimum of 600watt, as the graphics card uses 250 watts. Most likely it will be cutting it fine, and you will need to add up the power requirements of the rest of your system. You might be able to do this easily by using another graphics card temporarily in your system, and see how much power you are using then.

Addendum: Just out of curiosity, what are the rest of your system specs? Regardless, your wattage is low enough that I feel comfortable with my above recommendation. You can choose any brand of tier 1 or 2 power supply that you like from the tier list. I personally just like EVGA branded units.
