Question Q about potentiometers

this is not nessecarily related to the building of the robot but this has been bugging me for quite a while now...
can i connect a potentiometer to the wires of a servo... obviously throgh a power source and all that but will it work.. i thought about it because i know joysticks are basicaly based on ptentiometers at the base that measure the movement...and does anyone know if there is a NON-programming way to controll power output, i know that potentiometers as well cause thats whats in a speaker with volume control...

really appreaciate help!
