Is it possible to make 2 different layers from the image? Let me explain.

An image with light (shades of white/grey) over which theres pattern in dark color (red/black). Is it possible to make 2 (or more) layers out of this image, 1 with the light shade patterns (or the whole image) and a separate layer which only has the dark patterns, so as to make it easier to edit the dark patterns without altering the whites.

I am a starter at PS so if there's a term for doing this or tutorial to do so, please inform me and I'll look up.

This particular might be easier to photoshop as the background is plain pink but as an example can I separate as described above?

Thank you
