In some cases, yes. When creditors sue the debtor and receive a judgment order from the court they can implement it as a wage garnishment against pensions that are not protected by state and/or federal law.

All SS benefits/pensions are 100% exempt from creditor attachment. In most instances military and government pensions (railroad retirement, USPS, etc.) are also exempt. However, private pensions can be garnished to some extent depending upon the laws of the state in which the debtor resides.
