Yes, your sentence is grammatically correct. Whether it's correct and natural for a specific context would depend on the context. Can you give us a scenario in which you would use that sentence?
There are other ways of using that noun as well.

I want to describe someone by using an adjective; in this case, I would say he is successful.

But in this sentence (he is a success), is it supposed to have the same meaning in the same situation?

 

[Tarheel]

Offhand, I would say they mean the same thing. (See below.)

Abe: He's successful.
Bob: At what? What's he a success at?
Abe: Business. He's a successful businessman.
Bob: OK.

Abe: He's a success.
Bob: At what? What's he a success at?
Abe: Business. He's a successful businessman.
Bob: OK.
