Yes.
Say:

I haven't got much money. (Informal)
I've got a lot of money.
Notorioz I am much better than you?
It's fine.

The full sentence would be: I am much better than you are.

Thank you but She also said, Much can not be used in possitive sentences and countable ones, but Im wondering, Why is it correct to say' I am much better than you', better is uncountable and possitive and there is much used.

It is because in the sentence "...much better than...", much is an adverb modifying an comparative adjective, not an adjective (technically, a determiner) modifying a noun.
