Yes. For instance, fluorite (CaF2) has a characteristic shape (cubic), because of the ionic bonds that the elements form, while grapite (C) has a hexagonal shape because of the covalent bonds and the angle of the bonds. The hardness is also an indication of the type of bond, e.g. Van der waals bonds present in kaolinite are weaker than ionic bonds present in halite.
