Yes and no. Boiling the salty water will not remove the salt, but if the water vapour given off by the boiling is then condensed back to liquid water by cooling it and collecting it in another container, very pure liquid water will be obtained. This is called the process of "distillation" and produces "distilled water". The process of distillation is expensive because of the large amount of heat needed to boil the water.
