Sometimes. It really is a case-dependent issue since some cis / trans isomers (diatereomers) separate well on silica while others don't. From personal experience, I've noticed that cis / trans mixtures of cyclic compounds usually separate better than the analogous mixture of acyclic isomers (disubstituted cyclohexanes vs. hexanes, for example)...
Hope this helps!!!
