Historically, it would have been possible for John the Baptist to be at the crucifixion, since Josephus tells us that John was not imprisoned and executed until 35 or 36 CE, long after the accepted time of Jesus crucifixion. However, The Bible makes no mention of John the Baptist being present, and even tells us that John was executed quite early in the mission of Jesus.
So, from a historical perspective it would have been possible, but unlikely, for John the Baptist to be at the crucifixion. From a gospel perspective, John could not have been there because he himself was already dead.

Luke's Gospel is similar, although it only says that the women watched from afar off. John's Gospel says that Mary the mother of Jesus was actually at the crucifixion, but does not mention Mary Magdalene or any other women.
What does the Gospel say about the reasons for the crucifixion of Jesus?
A:The gospels all say that the religious authorities were opposed to Jesus. In the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke), the trigger that led to the arrest and crucifixion of Jesus was the 'cleansing of the temple', in which he overturned the tables of the moneychangers and those that sold sacrifices. For theological reasons, John moves this episode to the very beginning of the mission of Jesus, so in this gospel the trigger for the arrest and crucifixion of Jesus was the resurrection of Lazarus.
