Yes, but there is actually nothing stopping you from filing MFS with itemized deductions. The problem would then shift to your spouse. The IRS rule is written such that if one spouses itemizes, then the other spouse is not eligible for the standard deduction and must itemize or take no deduction. Its not applied the other way around as in, if one spouse takes the standard, then you must also take the standard. This means when you itemize, the standard deduction will be taken away from your spouse. So, whether that is something you want to do is your decision, but, in the end, you both must have the same deduction. There is no way around that rule.
