Yes. You can upgrade a settlement to a community, but then the next thing is to build a Minor City from scratch (actually, it's more efficient to first build a bunch of simple facilities quickly to take advantage of the unused space, and then [maybe a good construction yard and then] work on cities).

Originally they were going to be upgradable to cities, but currently there is a problem in the way upgrades work in SE4 that would mess this up (you could upgrade from a cheap settlement to a Megalopolis and end up essentially getting Megalopolis [or other city type] for half the cost).
