Yes, assuming we are in a field. A first consequence is that all the symmetric functions of $(c_1,\dots,c_n)$ are zero (see e.g. [this wiki article ][1]). But this can be written as an identity of polynomials $$x^n=\prod_{j=1}^n(x-c_j)$$ which obviously implies $c_j=0$ for all $j$. [1]:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_sum_symmetric_polynomial
