Absolutely. There are many options as nearly every major brand produces a hollow axel crankset. If yours is creaking than I suggest changing the bottom bracket as well, unless you're sure it's the crankset (chainring bolts can creak). Have a look at Shimano's Alfine crankset for a start. The main technical aspect to note is the axel diameter. Shimano and many others make 24mm axels. Sram and some others do 30mm.

Hope that helps.

Looks to be GXP which is Sram’s standard. Shimano as mentioned, will do several good budget options but they will require a new bottom bracket as they’re a straight 24mm axle and gxp are 24 but with a 22mm non drive side.
SRAM apex or rival would be the direct replacement for what you have
