Some grocery baggers where I am will do that, but some don't.

Lately I've been getting groceries via curbside pickup (at one of the stores that does that), or home delivery, as I haven't really felt like going inside to shop lately, as it can take about an hour or so to get through the store and pay for my groceries.  The baggers I get usually put the cold stuff together. I usually bring my own reusable bags with me in my car, and although they usually bag it for you, I like to help put my groceries in my bags so it goes quicker, and I can decide where at least some of it goes in the bags.  The downside to curbside and home delivery is not being able to pick out your own produce & such, though I think that hasn't been a big deal so far. Also sometimes they do make mistakes; recently I bought some drinks and I ordered the sugar-free version but some of the ones they got were the sugared version. I didn't notice until later..  I often notice some things when I pick up my groceries at curbside, but I didn't notice that when I picked up those groceries.
