Maybe. It really depends on the design, and the software you are using.
I know Materialise Magics has a pretty easy to use Cut command which will work with the standard reference planes. I think you can even sketch a shape for the Cut command to follow, but I've usually stuck with the plane option.
A lot depends on the model as well. Does it look like it can be split into pieces? How many pieces do you want?
@FredSWUG
he's asking about this model
3D Printable Model Car with movable doors, hoods, wheel and sterring wheel
A zip file is attached with 44 separate stl files.
Some are likely duplicates (i.e. the wheels), others likely need to have two copies for mirrored parts.
Hope it helps.
