Can sitting cause lower back pain?

I work in an office job where I have to sit for long hours, and I've been experiencing a nagging lower back pain that seems to get worse by evening. My physiotherapist said it's probably because of my posture and prolonged sitting. I'm wondering, can sitting for long periods really be the direct cause of lower back pain?
