Absolutely!
Lots of neat options.

It's a great way to get switches that you can trust to work reliably. I built a number of them.
Hand Laid Gauge 1 Switches
One Way To Build A Switch
Stub Switch Turnout Template
After a few, I did cheat and bought some ready made frogs and points that helped the construction process. I just did not enjoy making my own that much.
You will also need some method to control them. I wrote an article on creating switch stands; it's in Garden Railways June 2007, but you can also see how I did it over at my own place: Switchstands
