Whether you can recover data from the SSD depends on the damage condition. It is difficult to recover data from an SSD with severe physical damage. In case the surface of the SSD card is intact and is only destroyed logically, you can try to recover data from it with data recovery software.
First, you should identify how bad the damage to the SSD is. Does the SSD is broken into parts? If it is, you'd better have already backed up the SSD card with Time Machine, iCloud, etc., given that such an SSD is nearly impossible to recover even if you seek help from a data recovery service. And available backups give you a way to retrieve your data.

You can connect the SSD to your computer to see whether it could be successfully detected by your devices. If not, send it to a local repair. If luckily, your computer could recognize the SSD, then you can check the data on it.
