I known that continuity implies local integrability. Is this valid for piecewise continuous functions?

Yes, the functions is integrable on any compact subset of the domain which makes it locally intetrable.

We simply integrate on the intervals where the function is continuous and add the results using the formula $$ \int _a ^c f(x)dx = \int _a ^b f(x)dx +\int _b ^c f(x)dx$$
