the distance between them
Of course., they can.. What matters is how much is magnetic power (being more specific, electrically magnetic flux.). The attraction between two magnets is tremendously high with higher flux density magnets. (if you are more interested to know about, can browse for neodymium magnets!).

Attraction and repulsion
Parts that have the same charge will repel. Opposite charges attract/pull each other. So positive sides of magnets attract negatively charged magnets and repel positively charged magnets. Negative sides of magnets attract positively charged magnets and repel negatively charged magnets.
The magnetic fields between the north poles repel off each other
Magnetism
magnetic force
if different magnets attract metals then the attraction will be different.
The further the magnets, the lesser the attraction/repulsion.
bigger magnets. 'cus bigger magnets have more force(also so called as attraction) . thus, smaller magnets have less attraction.
Magnetic force of attraction is invesely proportional to distance between two poles.
when magnets are kept loose their magnetic power becomes weak. therefore a non magnetic substance should be kept in between of two magnets while storing them. so that there is no continuous attraction or repulsion between them.
repulsion or attraction between two magnets which leads to calculation of a positive work in the interaction shows the presence of a new force named the magnetic force.
magnetic attraction
attraction
If will decrease (if the object is bigger than than both magnets) the force acting between two magnets in mu times (where mu is magnetic constant for the object between magnets).
Gravity is classed by scientists as a weak force (compare the gravitational attraction between 2 magnets with the magnetic attraction, although admittedly not a fair comparison).
