Yes and no.

A galaxy itself cannot be destroyed. It is made up of billions of stars held together by massive gravitation influences.

Galaxies, do "collide" with other galaxies, but they do not "hit" more like merge into one another, forming a larger more massive galaxy.

So if galaxy A merges with galaxy B we might call the merger galaxy C. Galaxy A and B therefore no longer exist, so you could say that they have been destroyed, but all the original matter of the galaxy still exists, just in another form.
