Some of it depends on how hard you shake the water.  By hand, no.  Shaking it with a shockwave the travels at 9000m/s, well, now you've got a different story.  So, yes, you can break bonds by motion, but depending on the substance, it might require a lot or a little motion.

I remember reading an article where they used a mechanical chamber that shook steel bearings in a solution instead of using chemical catalysts.
