I'm only echoing others now, but yes, there are two types of pole--the axis on which the planet rotates, and the magnetic pole toward which the compass turns. The latter does reverse periodically, while the the former doesn't (though I suppose a big enough asteroid strike could jostle it).
I believe it's only happenstance that on Earth the two poles aren't that far off from each other, and that they could hypothetically be much farther apart on a planet with a different axial tilt; but someone may be able to correct me there.
