Yes.

*****************

Two astronauts floating weightlessly towards each other inside the Space Station, for instance. If one astronaut pushes the other away, both astronauts will move away from each other. Only if the one pushing had his or hers feet firmly against the side of the Station, would only one be pushed away.

How much force does a person in outer space exert on earth if the earth exerts 850 N on the weightless person?

The person in space exerts a force of 850 N on the earth. The fact that the person is weightless has no bearing on this question. Ever since Newton enunciated his three laws of motion we have known that action and reaction are equal and opposite. If the earth pulls him with 850 N, then he pulls the earth with 850 n.
