Possibly, but it would mean having it examined ASAP at either an Apple Authorized Service Provider or Apple Store before sugars have a chance to do irreparable damage.

Most Mac notebook computers that suffer a spill never fully recover. Anything liquid that is acidic is already doing very bad things to your logic board and other components.
The big issue is longevity of any repair/mitigation services. You many get the device professionally dried out, serviced, and running again, and still have it fail latter as unreachable amounts of liquid are still working over your expensive components.
First action: IMMEDIATELY notify your homeowners'/renters' insurance carrier of a potential total loss. That may be the only financial relief you get unless you have AppleCare+.
Get the device in for evaluation NOW before further damge is dome.

Restore from a Backup:
Did you ever back up your Mac using Time Machine. If so, then restore your data from it to another Mac, using Migration Assistant.
Yes, but that wasn't my question. I want to know if there's anything I can do to salvage my computer. I'm not worried about the data.
