Yes, actually. Generally if it was caused by injury, a vet will be able to tell from a (good) x-ray as it will show damaged tissue surrounding the joint or scarring from previous injury. It is not ALWAYS visible, but it is generally a good indication.
(I actually got to see this on an x-ray not long ago.)
