Yes, "if" introduces a "conditional" clause that can be indicative or subjunctive.

If you learn the subjunctive, you will master the Spanish language.
Si aprendes el subjuntivo, dominarás el idioma español.

If you would [were to] learn the subjunctive, you would master the Spanish language.
Si aprendieras el subjuntivio, dominarías el idioma español.

(Don't trust my English, as I am a native Spanish... but my Spanish has some reliability...)
