YES!!!!

Taking Sodium and Chlorine as an example.

Sodium metal is an element. Chlorine gas is an element.

Put them together in a gas jar and they will react to form the compound sodium chloride.

In nature atmospheric nitrogen (an element) will react with atmospheric oxygen (also an element), when a lightning strike discharges, to form nitrogen oxides (compounds).
