Yes, of course.

I was close to the clue experimenting with notation basis :(
But James found error in your sequence.
And I didn't expect there was one.
So the answer is:

10  = 10 (base 10)
11  = 10 (base 9)
12  = 10 (base 8)
13  = 10 (base 7)
14  = 10 (base 6)
20  = 10 (base 5)
22  = 10 (base 4)
101 =  10 (base 3)
1010 = 10 (base 2)

Thank you,
Shamil
