Pedantically speaking, yes. At least some small moons do freely rotate. But they are all very small and very far from their parent planet. If you were on the surface, you wouldn’t see details.

Mars has two small moons close to it, but neither rotate relative to the surface. They’re also really small and zip about super fast so they’re cool for other reasons.
