Yes.

With kernel-doc package installed on some Linux machine look at
/usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-*/Documentation/serial-console.txt
It is all described there in detail.  You can specify baud
rates and other serial port parameters

Make sure that when booting that way you do not use 'quiet'
boot option.  OTOH 'earlyprintk=...' and 'initcall_debug'
could be of help depending on where your boot really hangs.
Consult 'kernel-parameters.txt' in the same documentation
directory.

On the other end of a cable use a serial terminal with ability to
save "a screen capture".  On Linux minicom works well but it does
not have to be Linux at all.
