Yes it is possible. In the Settings Manager go to the Window Manager
Tweaks. Select the tab "Focus" and select "Switch to window's workspace"

I would prefer if that were the default, yet the majority might think this
is a better idea. I like having seperate programs on seperate desktops.

You are standing at the end of a road before a small brick building.
Around you is a forest.  A small stream flows out of the building and
down a gully.
