Yes! Occasionally there are moon quakes. This generates sound waves. However, a sound wave must travel through some medium. There is no atmosphere on the moon and so we don't hear these being emitted. You would have to put a listening device on the rocky dusty surface to "hear" the quakes. Sound travels well in solid material. I've always been able to listen to the valves in my car engine best by taking a cut off broom stick, touching the engine with it, and resting my ear on the other end of the broom stick.
