Yes - the decompose tool has a number of options. I normally use RGB but there are other options and all could use the same idea of reordering the different channels and mixing them with different modes and layer masks.

You could even decompose the original via two or more different approaches and then pick and remix any of the versions you fancy. I'll have to give that a go myself!
