Yes, some mixtures may be separated by a physical change. A mixture of water and alcohol may be separated by heating. The salt from sea water may be separated by slow freezing - as happens in polar ice sheets.

And most ores are a complex mixture, and the target metal may be separated by simple physical changes.
