Small algorithms, sure. Outside of algorithms courses, the practice has diminishing practicality. I once had to write a filesystem driver for a code, and it ended up being a little less than a thousand lines of C. I’m happy I didn’t need to do that on paper, it would have had limited value to my learning.
