Sep 14, 2020 at 15:27 comment added Steve Thank you for your answer. Actually, I don't want my function to "factor through" another continues function because in that case I know we can separate them even with a homeomorphism ( we send them to a higher space and the unlink them then send them back to $S^3$). In that case can we find such a map ?
Sep 14, 2020 at 15:26 comment added Moishe Kohan I suspect you forgot to assume that $deg(f)=\pm 1$.
Sep 14, 2020 at 14:53 comment added Connor Malin If I’m understanding your question correctly, the Tietze extension theorem tells you that since your links are closed subsets, it is possible to separate them with a function to the interval. After that you may just embed the interval into $S^3$.
