Characters from the Chrono Universe should have the capability to affect Souls and hit intangible beings as well with Magic or Elements.
There are multiple occasions of this happening. The most basic would be the enemy Soul and many others similar to it, against whom any attack that doesn't have a magical property added to it is guaranteed to miss no matter what.
Now for two examples more in league with the history, there's the case of Cyrus's Ghost and his dungeon in a sidequest where you find mostly Ghost enemies (Such as the Ghost Knights, Reapers, Defuncts, and finally Cyrus spirit who will also be hit only by magic - though due to plot armor, you can't damage Cyrus either way as you're supposed to talk with his soul in the past so he can pass on).
Finally there's FATE in Chrono Cross, who can simulate Souls and also manipulates a bunch of disembodied souls in Chronopolis to keep working there forever (the shadows in the screens below). When FATE goes down, said souls also disappear from Chronopolis.
And then there's the most obvious case where Linx/FATE used the Frozen Flame to put Kid's Soul to Sleep (but this one doesn't work for anyone save Lavos and Serge as opposed to the ones above so yeah).
Suggestion: Everyone who uses Magic or Elements gets the ability to hit Souls and Intangible targets as well as resistance to Soul Attacks since they're always throwing magic on one another. Ayla is the only one out of them who gets the short stick, since she lacks any form of magic or elemental attack whatsoever.
