Yes. You can use the search function for that, just search for "community@instance", so for example "[email protected]".
Linking to communities from other instances works similarly, using a "!": [email protected]
You can also append this type of address to your instance url like so:
https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected]
As long as another instance is not explicitly defederated (blocked) from yours, you can visit any community from any instance this way.
