Yes, "Find" (Ctrl-F on Windows and UN*Xes not named "macOS", Command+F on macOS) can search based on:

        a pattern-matching expression ("Find" calls it a "Display Filter");

        a hex value;

        a string;

        a regular expression.

The latter three match on raw frame contents; the former is the same as display filters, read filters, coloring rule 
expressions, etc..
