Yes, Hitler never occupied Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, Sweden, and the British Isles (except for the English Channel Islands). Therefore by definition he could not loose them, you cannot loose something you do not have. Finland was an ally to the Germans, but they shifted side in 1944. Hungary and Romania were allied to Germany.
